Yesterday I drove down to Seattle to stay at N's while visiting Colleen in the hospital (Swedish First Hill). It's good to be back with my chosen family for the first time in over a year, thouogh I would have preferred a different excuse.
The drive from N's to the hospital yesterday was something of a disaster thanks to my stupid phone's GPS being flaky to non-existant, and stupidly taking Google's advice as to the route. The GPS only had a signal when the phone was next to a window, so I put it on a convenient ledge. The directions it gave were mostly useless because it didn't tell me which lane to use, and it propmtly fell out the window when I rolled it down to pick up the parking lot ticket.
Today went more smoothly, and I was able to locate the car chargers this time. (They were on the top floor; yesterday I took a wrong turn and wound up on the bottom.)
The new phone arrives tomorrow; I intend to have dinner with E and go back to Whidbey to spend Saturday night and Sunday morning. I'm hoping to make progress on my taxes, pick up a few missing items, do some laundry, and cuddle the cats.
On the whole things don't seem to be quite as bad as they looked last week, but I'm not going to count on that continuing.
