Crime

I was at the bank today. There was just one cashier and things were moving slowly.

Learning To Trust My Instinct

I went to sell my mom's car this afternoon. 
We had previously gone to carmax where they gave us a price higher than we expected. So we decided that today was going to be the day we sold the car to them.

The idea is that you...

Exposed

Just yesterday I wrote about how my health was improving. And today, I find out that I may have been exposed to someone who was exposed to someone with a confirmed COVID test. 

It is amazing how hearing that you could be sick suddenly makes you feel like you are....

Energy

Feeling strong lately. 

I am not certain if it is due to one or many factors but I feel strong. Not physically strong but just have more energy. I am getting things done from my to do list more consistently than I did the last few month. 

I didn't think...

Kaiser

I was introduced to Kaiser when my employer a few years ago decided to provide that option in the healthcare plan. At first it sounded very reasonable and I was considering moving over. Then I heard that you can't get to choose your doctor. You have to go with the...

Me Time

I cleared my calendar for Sunday. For some reason, I had something or the other to do the whole week and I wanted to get Sunday for me. 

I enjoy spending time with others. I see a definitive improvement in my mood when I do so. This week I met...

Eating Out

I spent most of Friday meeting my friends. Most of them are working so having good Friday off was an excuse to meet up. 

It is hard for me to meet people outside of my own home due to the severe dietary restrictions I am on. I hate having to...
