It's September ... SEPTEMBER! Where has this summer ... this year ... gone? Anyway, Happy Labor Day - the traditional end of summer - to everyone in the United States.
- This week was mostly dominated by COVID. I tested positive for the third time on Monday. The Wife tested positive for the first time on Tuesday (she had symptoms before that but tested negative). I tested negative on Wednesday. The Wife is still testing negative as of today but the positive line is starting to look dim so she should be negative soon.
- After I tested negative I went out and did some errands I'd been putting off. One of them was registering my newish car. Everything went smoothly at the DMV though it was an expensive proposition.
- I waited until Friday before I went walking again. I took a leisurely walk around east Omaha. My original plan was to keep it short as I didn't know how recovering from COVID would do to my stamina. As I meandered through residential streets I hadn't walked in a while, the great weather we were experiencing encouraged me to keep pushing a little farther. I didn't over do it though and ended up walking 7.3 miles (11.75 km). This coming week, the last before we go on our next international trip, I hope to walk three times.
- Our next trip is a twenty-four day trip to Great Britain. This will be the first major international trip where we are not on a tour. We worked with our travel agent to plan our itinerary, book our lodging, and arrange transportation. We will be visiting friends we met on the Amazon (they visited us last year) before we travel around the island via train. I'm not ready yet and I only have a week and a half to get my act together.
- This week I returned to watching "One Piece". I'd paused my watching last January - February somewhere around episode three hundred. I'm thinking about starting another series before we leave on our travels. Not sure that will happen.
