This morning started out with a visit to my doctor. As usual, he hectored me about my weight and tried to prod me to taking a GLP-1 drug - no matter what its cost. That goes against my core philosophy - avoid expensive subscription items, when they are most in demand. Would I mind taking a GLP-1 drug? No. But when the does will end up costing over 10% of my after tax income, the answer will be NO. Yet, I will call my drug insurance company and find out whether (given my health) I can get it at a lower co-pay.
Next, it was back to my house to relax for a couple of hours, and then go for coffee with one of the board members. We talked about the Orange Monster, Co-Op business, and her financial health (what little of it that's left.) Sadly, I see her forced into less hospitable senior housing. But that's what happens when a person never had the chance to save much during her adult life.
Finally, after another 2 hours of rest, it was time for game night. I arrived just before 7:30, and got a call from the host - did I want him to save a place for me in the game they were setting up? I said yes, and walked in to the house a minute or two later. It was a pleasant evening, and though I lost (as usual), I had a good time.

Sadly, this would be my last day in Marian mode for a while. This weekend, I'll have to present as Mario, as I'll be meeting 2 of RQS's friends.
