Wednesday, 22 February 2017

I went to bed very early last night and woke up quite early this morning, but I managed to go back to sleep, and thus I felt more rested and ready for the day when I did finally did get up.

I walked over to see my family doctor with the report from the surgeon and to get a prescription for the medicine that he (the surgeon) recommended. Then, I walked into town and got it filled at the pharmacy. Unfortunately, as the surgeon had warned me, it is NOT covered by Maccabi, and so I had to pay nearly 300 shekels for a one-month supply! I'm going to manage somehow, because it may be important for my long-term return to normality.

On my walk into town, I went through an area of villas in Shakhamon where I saw a group of pretty flowers in planters, as you can see in today's pic of the day:

After the pharmacy, I walked down to the pet store and was able to get a mouse (a hopper, not quite as big as an adult) for Goldfinger. He was very happy when it appeared in his cage and knew exactly what to do with it, of course.

I had a yam, a baked potato, two vegetarian shnitzels, and 3 cookies for lunch today.

After lunch, I walked over to help some friends with some computer stuff involving printing documents that I had double-spaced and put into large print and some tracks of music. It quite a bit of time, but I really enjoyed it and was glad that I was able to be helpful. I also enjoyed a lovely British afternoon tea while I was there (actually, coffee, cake, and cookies).

In the evening, I relaxed a bit and watched 2 or 3 episodes of "Friends".

I walked a total of 8.8 kilometers today.
