Which is totally hilarious, considering that I woke to the alarm at 7:00 and, upon doing a quick check of my cellphone, read with horror a church & FB friend who lives downtown writing about the S-word. Nooooooo. Say it ain't so. Well, yes, it wasn't so. At least by the time I left home (after 11:00) there was evidence of regular, old rain. Or melted snow. Phew!
So, where was I off to? Downtown to see my eye specialist. Strangely enough, detouring along my route to church - and actually DRIVING right by the church - was the fastest way there! I wore my new sleeveless mango-azalea-black top so that I could get my flu shot first when the driver dropped me off at the drugstore across the street at noon. Got it, as well as a recc to get the shingles vaccine that is now covered for my age-range. Oy. Another reason to get a new medical provider. After I got the not-even-felt-anything shot, I wandered through the store, wanting to take advantage of a bonus air miles coupon. Sorry, blondie. A pleasant shopping experience is restricted to people who can SEE. So frustrated, so just bought two new mascara wands and (shhhh) chips.
Then back to the really nice eye specialist. Had to wait but not as long as anticipated. After he declared my pressure to be okay (that's a relief), I asked if he'd seen the Chihuly. Of course he had. Spent several hours at it. I joked that I'd worn the stained glass top he likes to it and Museum staff had remarked I must have worn it deliberately to evoke the exhibit. You bet! I also chided him that he'd nearly lost his credibility with me because he'd said last time that today's appointment would be before the snow flies! I was soon finished, and not expected back until - eek again - August. So long? Unless it's a good thing.
Had a bit of a wait until I was picked up (at least a few minutes early) before 3:00. The traffic was almost non-existent and I was thrilled to be home before 4:00 especially as the driver had had two other pickups. OMG, it's nostalgia time. Because he took me past the Faculty of Music and the Museum with the Chihuly on the corner from which I could just see the top floor of my building where I'd lived for 33 years. No wonder I was hungry. So I ate some chips and drank some Perrier. Dozed off during the news. What else is new? Well, I discovered at 8:01 that there was a new Murdoch Mysteries so quickly pressed Re-start and watched it. I'd recorded other shows but - obviously - fell asleep to the sound of the nature channel. Between the no proper food and two long trips, it's no wonder. So I think I'd better give myself a wee bit of nutritious yogurt so I can take my evening pills. Signing off.
