We got up with the alarm this morning - Ellen had an 8:30 doctor's appointment. We did the pet stuff and left a little early. It was good that we did. The Mopac was backed up at 290. So we drove up Escarpment to William Cannon. William Cannon was backed up to Escarpment, so we went the other way. We took the back way to 290. After that it was clear sailing and we got there a few minutes early.
For once the doctors were on time. We were out of there by 9. We'll get the results tomorrow afternoon. The appointment is at 3. We'll be lucky to get in by 4:30 or 5.
After the doctor we went to the yuppie grocery. Traffic was a mess. Both 290 and the frontage road were backed up. We got the stuff for a $40 dinner - steak, pears, radishes, and bread. RThat place is expensive.
The next stop was Jim's for breakfast. It was good, and cheap. It was still early. We went to Tominson's, mainly so Lucy would have a good time. The last stop was Circle C where Lucy did 10 retrieves. That's pretty good since she did 20 late yesterday afternoon.
When we got back I decided it was time to actually finish the switch board. So I did. It was a pain in the ass, so I didn't feel like hooking it up back to the layout.
After that it was lunch. Then I got some shooting stuff together and we went to the post office and Red's. Ellen shot her STI and VP9. I shot the R51. That STI is a dream to shoot. Neither of us did well with the VP9. The R51 shoots way low. I'm not sure what to do about that.
When we got home it was surfing time. At 5 I took the dog to the mailbox. When we got back I went to the apartment to do the exercises the doctor gave me. It wasn't fun. There were a couple I couldn't get through. I was sweating and tired when I finished - all in 10 minutes. It will get better as I keep at it (I hope).
Ellen fixed the steak for dinner on the Traeger. It was good. After dinner I surfed and Ellen watched dumb competition shows.
