Well today has been a day. The weather was awesome, so I layered up and I walked all the way to the other side of town. I had many errands that had been piling up that I haven't been able to do as I haven't been able to get out because of the snow. But I knew the temperature was going to get as high as 8 this afternoon so I didn't want to waste this opportunity. It was hard going as I didn't bring my walker (which is my shopping bag on wheels) as I would never have gotten it through all the slush. But it was sunny which was a nice treat after being couped up in my apartment for months. Never under-estimate getting outside on a bright sunny day.
First I went to the post office to pick up a passport application. The guy there suggested I get my optometrist to sign for me. Brilliant idea! I could have hugged him. Next the bank (starting to withdraw cash for my holiday slowly) Then the library to print out my itinerery for my flights and hotel. The old fashioned me needs a paper copy to bring to the airport (what if theres no wi-fi and I can't bring it up on my phone to check in and board?) I just like to have a paper copy. Then on to the jewellers here in town to get my necklaces looked at. For the money I spent I needed to know if they were authentic or not. They are. Then Shoppers Drug Mart,...
I was standing at the intersection infront of Shoppers Drug Mart when I realized that the car infront of me that was waiting for the light was on fire! At first I wasn't sure and didn't want to shout out. But then I heard honking from other cars and others shouting. I starting pointing at her car and yelling "your cars on fire" but the poor little old lady driving was oblivious. The light changed to green and there was nothing more I could do as she drove off. But apparently the driver behind her managed to pull her over and they put the fire out. For a small town,... a lot happens,..
After the drug store I was off to Giant Tiger,...
Now, by the time I finished at Giant Tiger, I was completely on the other side of town. Probobly 5 km from home(??). For the second time in 2 days I felt tired. Physically tired. I don't usually feel that. And the walk home ended up to be a struggle. I ended up going into Subway and buying a sub just so I could sit down and rest before going the rest of the way home. This is not me,... I am pretty sure it's my heart,... and with this trip I have planned now, I want to be alive and healthy enough to go and enjoy it in July. But the past few days have me worried. I was actually worried enough to contemplate 911 again. But no,... I hate the $45 bill just to be told to go to my doctor when I can,... they can write me a prescription but they can't give me consistent care to see my heart disease is progressing. So I called the walk-in but they don't have any available appointments (do they ever when I call if I can even get through?). So,... what to do,... what to do,... what to do,...
and as i write this I still don't know what to do,... but now I'm getting concerned I will have a stroke.
