The day started off with trainer John, and that went as well as usual, partly good and partly frustrating due to the shoulder. I always seem to be able to do more with him, because the shoulder stays warmed up.
Back home for a few minutes only, I caught up with email and then left with Mary and John for her dentist appointment. The dentist is just over the US 1 bridge on SR 44 going westward, so a pretty short drive once I knew where I was going. I dropped them off around 9:40 and picked them up around 11am. She had quite a successful "meeting" with the dentist; he ground down the sharp edge of her chipped tooth and provided a prescription rinse. She's "good to go" now !
After I dropped them off, I went to the post office and picked up a piece of registered mail -- an HDMI-to-RCA cables(s). I haven't tested it out yet.
A little bit of computing later and lunch and I was off to meet with an accountant. He gave me a piece of good tax advice and ... get this ... isn't going to charge me. He said that he'd charge me if and when I came to him with a "real problem". Of course I was only there 10 minutes, most of which was pleasantries and then my incredulous "that works ?". Sometimes the seemingly complex has a simple solution, even with the IRS.
From there I went to the grocery store and fish store, picking stuff up for dinner. Home again for a few minutes, I then was off to the orthopod -- that will take some time to do a full report but the visit was mostly successful in my books. Time will tell. I tried to then pick up a prescription but failed. The pharmacy was having trouble with United Healthcare. Hopefully the prescription will be ready today.
Back home for a few minutes, I was off again, but this time with Abby and John for a walk. By the time we got home, Harris and Debbie had arrived. We snacked, chatted, ate dinner, chatted, ate desert, chatted ... a great evening.
The highlights of the dinner, other than the company of course, were the salmon and leek pie, one of my favorites, and Sandy's incredible key lime pie -- hand squeezed. Mmmmm. This is one of about two types of pie to which I'm drawn, tart and delicious !
The day was mostly done. I watched DWTS along with Mary and John for a few minutes as I iced the shoulder and then hit the sack.
I'm about to go biking, plan on being back around 10am or so and we'll go boating by 11am. It will be a busy day.
Onward !
