Pretty well worn out...

Today I went to my regular bus stop around 10:30--not expecting the bus to show up, but hoping it would, as I really needed to get to the pharmacy to get my meds. Well, I was just thinking of going home, as the bus didn't usually come to that stop on the weekends (the one where I catch the bus to work), but then I looked up and what do you know, here came the bus !
So, I rode the bus and the guy let me off a couple of cross streets past the Health Center, but when I got off the bus I just walked back.
I got my pills fairly fast, as I had just spoken to someone on the phone at the pharmacy yesterday, and she had put them aside for me. The gal I spoke to on the phone wasn't at the counter, but she was not far behind the counter and told the gal I spoke to that my pills had been put aside for me.
When I got out of the Health center, I had just missed the bus, so I started walking. I kept hoping to catch the bus along the way, but was never at the bus stops along the way at the right time.
When I got to the bus stop/transfer center by the grocery store, I looked at the little board thingy where it said how soon the bus I needed to get on would come, and just like the last time I had been out, it wouldn't be coming for another half an hour ! So, even though I was feeling worn already, I figured I'd get home faster walking, so I did. The whole trip was a little over three miles.
I've had my exercise for the weekend, thank you.
When I finally got home, I wound up lying on the living room floor for several minutes, I was so tired and my feet hurt so bad.
The distance from the Health Center to home, the way I walked, was a bit over three miles.
Yikes--I guess I got my exercise for today ! 
I didn't feel like doing much else than sitting in my chair in the living room and watching TV once I got myself off the floor. My apologies to Angel that she didn't get her afternoon walk, but I just couldn't do it. She got extra treats to compensate.
My brother called and wished me an early happy birthday, and said he'd probably be by tomorrow. Also, as he usually does when he calls, he talked about things the advocate and Mom's lawyer called him about, and I told him about when I called the advocate the other day and that I'd heard from the lawyer's assistant or whatever his title is, though I haven't had the chance to call back yet.
Man, I am wiped, and I will certainly sleep good tonight ! I have a few hours to go before that happens, though...
