Sunday: walks
Jun. 14th, 2020 04:22 pmToday was the Susan McDaniel Lovelane Virtual Walk. T. and I both did it. I sent his track coach a picture of him in a team t-shirt with his bib pinned on. She seemed pretty happy to get it and asked permission to post it on Insta and FB. Of course! My one mile walk was with M. (my walking partner).
I also chatted with M. (Not my walking partner) while walking around the 1 mile loop twice.
We have sorted through sandals and found a pair that fits A. She is now very, very close to my shoe size and shape, which is convenient and inconvenient. The former, in that I can now shop my closet for her. The latter, in that she tends to pick the ones I like a lot. Which is okay! I have a lot, and if I dig through them, I invariably find more to love,
I have been doing a lot of thinking about the remaining trips that I had planned during the Before Times. I have already canceled a road trip to / in Quebec (duh, border still closed, still have internal controls — makes sense that I cannot count on even an August trip working) and replaced it with a Vermont trip that is a bit shorter (still driving, obviously). The LBI beach week was canceled by others (as a family event), but we never canceled, and it is kinda sorta maybe back on again as a family event, but with a slightly different set of participants.
My sister _was_ going to go on a different beach trip with me. It was always a little questionable, so I put off buying the tickets for her for a really long time. Sure enough, about a week after buying the tickets, she bailed out on it. Upon further reflection (days of reflection) and consultations with various friends (friends are awesome), I think I am not going to confront her with the dilemma of Do I Go On a Plane and Then Have to Self-Quarantine After again this calendar year. It will only get harder for B. (partner), and the calculation is not really going to change for her. So I am now in the process of re-arranging some late in the year travel. Not exactly certain what my options are, but I have a fair amount of time; I just need to figure out a day when I can sit on hold and then talk it through with someone.
I am still waffling on what to do in terms of the LBI trip. She has a conflicting cruise that week, that I doubt she is really going to take and I have invited them as a contingency plan, and we have space, but I wonder if it is enough space. Hotel cancellation policies on LBI are unforgiving, tho.
