Not much new here today. Still have the rash, still itching and it's still spreading. The only good news on that front is that it seems to be trying to clear up on my lower legs where it first started. That's progress and at this point I'll take it.
We have Graduation for my oldest grandson tomorrow night, so that means a trip to Louisiana for his big event. He had a struggle here at the end with the unexpected death of his father's brother in January that sent his grades spiraling down. He was very close to his uncle and this hit him like a brick wall. Thankfully, he was able to pick up his grades here in the last month and a half and save his scholarship too. He will be starting college in pharmaceutical school in the Fall. They wanted him to start this summer, but he needs a little time off.
My husband is off running errands in town and will pick up a refill for me on my steroid ointment for this rash. I don't want to run out and not have any tomorrow when we are out of town. When he gets back we will head out to McComb and have lunch and pick up a few groceries.
That's my plans for today, what are you doing?

I'm glad your grandson was able to pick up his grades again after his uncle passed away. Sometimes things like that hit harder than we realize they will.
Nothing much going on here. Pretty told me last night she wants to go grocery shopping today. (I tried to talk her into going a few days ago with me but she refused.) It would have been more practical for her to have gone then but, of course, she wanted to be difficult and stay in bed. I can't guarantee I'll be able to see so it's better to get things like that done when I can see instead of putting them off.
I just woke up to use the bathroom and will be going back to sleep soon, I hope.
Have fun going to lunch. I hope it's good.

@kareng Yup! She's mad now because I can't see well enough to drive. *shrug* It's her own fault.

Kudos to your grandson for pulling it together. Today I have a doctor TeleHealth appointment.
