I know it seems like a good part of my blog these days are weather reports but that's what's important to me right now. I love this part of the day when it's late or getting late and I'm sequestered in my apartment usually by my bed with the heater going in the other room. It's warm and I feel safe and exhausted from a day outside traveling. I've been sort of intimidated by this day because I had to go to doctor I didn't know who practiced in another building way up town right about 7th East and third South. Fortunately the train went right by there that I didn't totally understand and I got off two blocks before I needed to. I was running late anyway and I was really afraid I was not going to make it there on time but I gave it an effort. I hadn't been feeling well today not that I felt sick I just didn't feel like I wanted to be very far away from a toilet but I went on this trip anyway because I wanted to get this doctor's appointment out of the way. She was an optometrist or is an optometrist. And my appointment was was at 1:10 in the afternoon. I thought sure I had enough time but I got stuck on a project this morning before I headed out of the apartment which I'll write about tomorrow or day after. Like I said all the sudden the morning tended to evaporate as I worked on the project I still had to climb into my jacket I decided I'd wear a heavier jacket than usual since it's pretty cold out there. I finally wrestled myself into it cursing the jacket and myself deciding I would throw this jacket away when I finished with it today. Then I rushed out to catch the bus and the best that I needed was just leaving as I got to the bus stop I had to wait another 20 minutes for the next not sure I was going to be super late but you know what I got there right on time.
I had a bit of trouble located in the building there's been many built in this area since I've been in this community. I had to call and have them talk me through to where the building was and I got there eventually. Of course I didn't see the doc at first I had to go through her minion who took all the information from me and then dilated my eyes which is a whole different trip. She got 90% of the information then she came in for the last 10% but she was nice and we got along quite well I think and then I was finished out the door down the street till I found a Burger King got one of my favorite burgers and finally caught the bus or the train which brought me to the bus but it was just cold and I was getting tired. I should have stopped at the market on the way home and got some things for Thanksgiving that I said I was going to make now I'm not so sure. I am wearing out quickly. Maybe I can do the candy jams or maybe the dressing but either way I'd have to get to the market tomorrow and try to do it by Thursday. I don't know if that's feasible. I've got to stop volunteering for holiday meals..
