Volume 17 - Day 306/59, 2025 - Sunday

I did a full walk this morning, my back is a little bit better, but now my big toe on my left foot is aching. I assume I am just turning in to a puddle of mush, but, I am leaving on my trip in two days, so I am pretty sure I will survive until Tuesday afternoon. I still have a few things to do; laundry tomorrow, go to the bank tomorrow,  pack Tuesday morning, make some phone calls tomorrow, do more stuff tomorrow and Tuesday. It will all work out. This morning, I went and picked up Val and Paulina and Oliver. Paulina had an appointment to get another piercing in her ear, and then we went to lunch at Garbo's. I have been recommending it to them for a while, and they really enjoyed it. We all had fish and chips, except Val who had a lobster grilled cheese sandwich. Everyone was happy. On my way home, I stopped at Walmart (something I never do) and bought two pairs of stretchy pants. Same size I wear, but stretchy Wranglers. I will be much more comfortable on the trip with the stretchy relaxed fit pants than with the pants I already have (Levi's). I did go over the itinerary to make sure I had all the right flight records and hotel reservations and all that stuff. I am pretty secure that I have checked all the boxes. But I still have two days. My refrigerator is really sad, I have been trying not to buy groceries since I am leaving for a couple weeks, and I think I have done a good job with that. There are still a few things for Val and Paulina, but not much!
