You lose something. You replace it or let it go and that's that. Except...
Most things don't really disappear. They still exist somewhere in the world. And that's driving me round the bend this morning.
I lost my pulse oximeter. It's a small thing, something I can't let go, but is easily replaced. The replacement has already been ordered.
And yet I can't stop thinking about where it might be. At the dog park? Down under the roses I was deadheading? Wherever my 4th grade notebook went?
Pain level better. Robot device still uncomfortable enough to interrupt sleep. Hopefully today’s adjustment will bring relief.
Planing my road trip 7/17 to PA. Have started packing van. Slowly.
Is your elbow up to all that steering?
My right hand is so dominant, the left is rarely used except to stabilize.
Driving around town & backing into my parking space have gone well. Hours of driving are unknown.
Promised orthopedic doc I’d pull over in rest area & nap if needed. Giving myself 2.5 days to drive 11 hrs.
Might take longer in the slow lane. Big Girl Pearl is used to rolling with the semis.
Sounds okay! Good luck, be careful, and be sure to let us know you got there ok
Heading north 7/17
You know I will.
@LnzyHou Brave lady! Safe travels 🌈@BrazenlyLiberal
Leaving 7/17. Have started packing and organizing van. Each trip outside, I bring something else. No wasted trips.
@LnzyHou Where are you headed Lindsay, may I ask? @BrazenlyLiberal
Bucks County PA for our shared birthday. Anne will be 100 years old! Family celebration planned with caterer & music.
She called me last Saturday expecting me not to come. Told her I’d crawl if necessary.
Leaving 7/17 with 2.5 days to get there.
@LnzyHou Oh right, I remember now! So glad you will be able to go! @BrazenlyLiberal
Not gonna miss it for anything.
@BrazenlyLiberal You will find it as soon as the replacement arrived
Absolutely! And in some place I could swear I already looked.
The children's book series The Borrowers explains it all. 😉
My kiddos loved it.
Ooh. I forgot about them. Maybe if I leave a few mini sandwiches out tonight, they'll return it. 😄
Could happen 😉
@BrazenlyLiberal
Then the dog ate it.
