Freedom

I got some awesome news from the doctor the other day. My
driving ban has been lifted!! I was really under the impression
that it was a 100 day ban. They told me it was because of my
meds. But now they have changed their tune and told me that
as long as I was feeling okay, I can drive!

My first foray out was to the local CVS. I took Sophie with me. I
still need to wear a mask and gloves when I go out. All was
going well until Sophie disappeared. It took me a few minutes
to figure out why: there was someone in the store she knew, and
she did not want to be seen with The Masked Creature. Teenagers!
She ended up meeting me in the car.

Yesterday, I ventured all the way to Trader Joes. Did a bit of shopping, but
then just got exhausted. I took a two hour nap when I got home.

So even though I am free to go where I want, I don't yet have the energy
to go where I want. I'll take it, at any rate. It give me a bit more freedom
than I had, and that feels wonderful!
