Joanne is back from a tour of Baja — whale watching excursion got close enough to a gray whale that she could touch it — and we took a leisurely walk first thing, bringing each other up to date on a week’s happenings. Sherry, a mutual friend, has covid. Her doctor (who is also my new doctor) prescribed Paxlovid, and Joanne ran the errand for her to pick it up. It was $800!
I was exposed to Sherry. She ran the poetry out loud meeting Monday afternoon. So I was 5 feet from her, in a room with the doors closed, for an hour. So today we made a stop at CVS to pick up some more flu/covid test kits. I’m clear so far, cross fingers.
I sat down to try to clear my mailbox. I only keep in my inbox, emails that I need to respond to in some way, or follow up on. There were about a dozen, I did enough follow ups to whittle it down to 6.
At 3 I put on my walking shoes and walked to PAMF for a routine consult with my cardiologist. She made a small change in meds and recommended I do a stress-echo, so that is scheduled.
Between two walks I ran up nearly 11K steps and 4.4 miles.
