Another successful outing.

George and I just got home from the VA clnic and a trip to Aldi. I kept the shopping short, giving George plenty of time to rest. He had a bit of trouble with giving his name and social to the lab tech, but she came out and spoke to me. So that went as well as expected. I got us the basics at Aldi, things I've been needing. Plus a handful of treats for me.
We had no ride issues.
I realize it's a bit expencive to get a ride to the store, but it saves me money on delivary fees or risking not having what I need. I've used Uber eats before, and will use it in the future, but there are times where my only option is in-person.
George is resting outside, and we might see rain later this afternoon. I have laundry to do, but thought I'd pop on in and update everyone on my day thus far.

Wow a lot going on then Kayla. I know what you mean about not getting everything you want with delivery.

I'll use it if I have to, but I try not to have to.

It's good you gave us an update. I'm glad you had no ride issues. It's nice knowing that George is doing well.
My day was okay and I'm now in bed ready to sleep.

I like being able to report good news as far as he's concerned.

I have the same issues with our two stores that deliver here. I'd like to Zoom when they are choosing certain items and tell them which I want.

Even if that was an option, I wouldn't see enough detail to tell. But, at the end of the day, as long as I have options I know we won't starve.

We're doing great so far. Even though we had to go out and do some traveling, we got a lot done.

I never think about going in and out of a store. Then when I hear how hard it is for George and what steps you have to take I appreciate my every step even more. Keep getting better and I will be cheering you on.

Thanks, it's not always easy. However, we're making an effort. I think that's the best thing.

@Itsonlyadream Yes. While science has come a long way when it comes to the human brain, they'll be the first to admit there's a lot more to learn.

@kaylachan I close my eyes and think and pray for you both. Maybe some how this will make it easier for the both of you. The mind has power we still don't know or understand. I have the mind you have the willpower.

I think they will. I should have his new medicine tomorrow.

This time out was better than the last one. And, each one will be better and better. Keeping them short for now.

It'll be interesting to see how long it'll take for him to recover from this.

He's out of it, but I did get him dry. Weather he makes it to bed tonight is anyone's guess.
