Day 895

We woke up at 7:45, did the pet stuff and had breakfast.  We left for the doctor a little after 8:30.  The dog stayed home because it was gong to be hot.

I knew to stay off loop 1.  There was a crash on Slaughter, but it was after Escarpment.  We took Escarpment up to William Cannon, turned left, and took Beckett and the back way to 290.

290 was OK to loop 1.  Loop 1 wa slow from 290 until we got to downtown.  We stopped a couple of times, but for the most part it was just slow.  After downtown it was clear sailing to 35th, and then on to the doctor's office.  We were at the office about 40 minutes after we left home.

We were at the doctor's office for only a few minutes.  Dumbass wife had the wrong day.  I have to do this all again on Thursday.

The next stop was the vet.  We got 8 bags of fluid.  That should last us until Oregon.  We also stopped for donuts at the donut shop next door.  The next stop was Goodwill across the street.  I unloaded all of the garden stuff the previous owners had left on the deck.  I've been meaning to do that for years.

We stopped at CVS on the way back west on Slaughter to transfer another prescription.  Then it was up Brodie to Lowe's to get some keys to the apartment made.  Unfortunately the machine couldn't make the lock key.  We went to Home Depot, but their machin couldn't do it either.

The next stop was the post office.  I had to go to the window because there were too many proxy statements to fit in the box.  The total number was only about 15, but half of them had annual reports. From there we went to Wells Fargo.  We got some money and got a marriage certificate out of the safe deposit box.  The last stop was HEB.

When we got home I went through the mail and voted the proxies.  The badges for the NRA convention were there, as was the paperwork for the Intel pension.  It's several pages, I'll read it tomorrow.

Isaac is due in today.  So I moved the rest of the Oregon stuff from the living room to the garage.  I also turned on the water heater.  That should complete getting ready for him to move in.

In order to get something accomplished towards leaving I gave the inside of the car a thorough cleaning.  Hopefully it won't get too dirty in the next two weeks.

Isaac's plane came in from New Zealand to Houston at 12:40.  It's 6:30 now and he hasn't shown up yet.  I bet he's stuck in traffic.

Ellen came home at 7 and called Melissa.  He's not coming until tomorrow.  I had a late dinner (pizza) and then surfed while Ellen watched her fantasy shows.
