As I write this entry, I've been on land for 3 days now. And reality is catching up with me. I've had to write out a fistful of checks (actually, they are ACH Payments for the most part) , and my bank account is the lowest it's ever been for a while. By tomorrow, my monthly Social Security payment will be credited to my account, and I will be mostly whole again.
Catching up with this is always a pain in the butt. Last night, I laundered 2 baskets of dirty clothes, with another basket ready to go today. Today, I paid bills. And tomorrow, I'll likely do some apartment cleanup before going out for lunch with a friend and going to game night for the first time in a couple of months.

Today, I went to the radiology center in town to get a liver scan. Now, I have some understanding of how a woman feels as her belly gets slicked up for the ultrasound scan, and for the device to be rubbed over the skin. (No, there's no sensory comparison. But there is a procedural comparison, and only that, here.) In a week and a half, I expect that my doctor will be giving me some bad news as the results of this scan comes in.
Once done with the liver scan, it was off to the bagel shop to get breakfast. Being without food or water for 10 hours made me hungry and thirsty. And I dealt with that need before going home. Then, I relaxed for the rest of the day.
