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!

  5. We are very happy to hear you can "move about the cabin" - to carry your metaphor further, just watch out for the distractions in the aisle and keep looking ahead and forward! Hillary joins me in sending all good wishes! We saw Marc yesterday at the get-together and it was wonderful to catch up and to see Eli as well.
