So you're saying that you don't have much going on?
I have a feeling that I'm not going to be able to plan too much "me time" in advance, but yeah, I'll see what's what.
I wasn't terribly thrilled about the stop, but then I realized that I'd still have my bike in the car, too... that got me thinking about a silver lining of spending the day on a spin through the city for old times sake.
...and then my wife informed me that she'd invited a couple of our old neighbors, thus committing me to the gathering. *sigh*

On a personal note, I got my 11th eye injection of Avastin today and was told that I’m getting worse. Next month, the doc is going to up the ante to Eylea which carries a $400 co-pay. Luckily, I got approved with an organization to pay the monthly co-pay till the end of the year and then I have to be approved again which shouldn’t be a problem.

It’s under discussion. More realistic is spending a few months there each winter. The legalities of living there permanently are complicated so unlikely to make a permanent move. Everything is on hold now because, you know.

If that comes to fruition, and I'll advocate for it, I always like visiting DC, I'll bring the bike along and bag off on a day when their sightseeing itinerary isn't of particular interest. Weather permitting, of course.

I've met a few internet randos through another chat group. One is from your area. I'm still alive.

Currently, dark and rainy. I can hear thunder in the distance. Today's my half day at the shop. If this continues, it will be a soggy commute.
