Way Off My Routine!

I was already scrambling with the idea that I had to go and get my driver’s license renewed - a nearly hundred dollar birthday gift from me to the state - and on top of that I also had my annual physical scheduled.

So, two things truly screwing up the daily schedule.

I was going to have to get after it early on.

Headed out to the car, the cold biting at me a bit.

I noticed that the seatbelt was stuck in the driver’s side door that wasn’t fully closed.

Kathy had been the last one to drive the car.

Turned the key and nothing happened.

The battery was dead.

Now, the old apple cart was really upside down.

I headed back into the house and spent an hour doing paperwork, trying to figure out what the hell was my next move.

Jake was in the neighborhood, and I called him to come by, and then I got the cables, hoping to jump the battery.

Which is no easy feat because I’m mechanically disabled.

I got it on the first try!!

You’d think I’d be happy, but the schedule was all off.

At the docs we talked a little about getting old and all the tests and vaccines that were available to me.

I went for the flu shot and an eye exam, and received the news that my colonoscopy is due.

That’ll be fun.

Then I got home to the news that Ollie was on his way home even though Wrangler is still here.

Grand time.

2 dogs and a cat.

One more neurotic than the next.

Routine is shot to hell.
