Plans for today (2025)

[SoCalZone10]

I planned for my sister to use our local Senior transportation for people who can’t drive, today is her first day using this system. I called the doctor’s office and she’s now there, it’s her first time, I did say to the system to be patient with her because she’s new. It’s a first step toward independence without my brother and I having to drive her around.
So the plan for today is to make yogurt. We have no car, my daughter is borrowing my car to go to LA.

Nice work!
I’m thinking of suggesting to my Dad he downloads the Uber app and gets used to it before he has to give up driving. Not sure that will be an easy conversation to have.

My daughter did download the app for my sister and she also set the setting for female drivers only, which is the reason why my sister was afraid of Uber. But I did set up for her to use the Yellow Cab here and she used them a few times, she wasn’t afraid of it, so why is she afraid of Uber. I think sometime there’s a bit of mental health issue with my sister.

Sounds like it but it’s common as everyone starts to knock on in years to develop fears about certain things.
She has you and your brother chivvying her along though so that’s a very lucky position to be in.

I find myself thinking it was only a pain to decide what to pack because there’s no way someone with your style doesn’t do layers darling layers

It certainly has to be said that our TastyReuben is the best dressed man here. Apologies to all other contenders!

Packing for extremes of temperatures is certainly a challenge. Layers are OK up to a point but if you aren't careful you end up with:

excess bulk and improper material choices, which can lead to a messy look, restricted movement, and even health risks like heat stress or hypothermia in extreme cold.

Or that is what AI says.

Anyway, I hope you have a relaxing break TastyReuben.

I have a good trip TastyReuben. I have yet to do a cruise and have never been to Florida.

Thanks! Here’s our plane:

Yup…I’m going to land in hot-as-the-devil’s-bumhole Florida with a scarf and winter coat. Arrrggghhh!
