Exhaustion and All That

[billroper]

I slept badly last night, because I knew that Gretchen and I were going to try to go to the Social Security office and present the documents without which our Medicare applications would stall. Happily, we were able to get it as walk-ins. After a bit more than an hour, I was called to a window; then the clerk understood the situation and asked Gretchen to join me; and then our documents were added to the application, which should prevent it from going completely to crap.

Now we just have to wait...

In the meantime, I came home and took a nap. And then I picked up Gretchen's (free!) prescription for Metformin at Sam's Club. And then I handed off an APBA team to Guth as we caught up on things. And then it was a lovely dinner with Nick and Tina at a Vietnamese restaurant in downtown Des Plaines. (Gretchen didn't come, as her stomach has been extremely dicey since the visit to the dentist yesterday.)

Overall, a much better day than it could have been. :)
