š¶On The Road Againš¶
Wednesdayās adventure began with another, although hopefully the last, 100 mile round trip to see one of my doctors. My goal for 2024 is to find a new medical team closer to home now that my disability was approved.
Interstate 95 is no joke. It is never a pleasant or relaxing drive. The trucks are all over the road so traffic moves like an accordion, fast then slow, over and over again. Thankfully , Iām not an aggressive driver because there were more than enough of them on the road. Iāve learned to keep my cool while driving with the help of the meditation I do at home everyday.
We always leave extra early for the trip so if there was an accident, the delay wonāt ruin my appointment. Of course, I do everything I can to make sure that we arenāt the ones in any accident. When we got to our destination, I stopped at a shopping center so Hal could go and look around while we waited to go to the doctorās office. While he is shopping, Iām going ahead and starting this blog entry. Iām sitting in the car and actually dictating this using my voice as opposed to typing everything out.
Since we used to live in this area, we know where everything is at. This makes it easier for us when we have to come up here for any appointments. One canāt help but notice the difference in attitude in the town we used to live in. It is much more conservative and weāre glad that we donāt live here anymore.
I found out that the equipment the doctor planned to use malfunctioned, so we have to make one final trip next Thursday to get things done. I really hoped that today was the last trip, but fate intervened.
Thatās all for today. Be kind to one another.
