I am happy we are closing 3 days sooner on the house for my son. That means I can leave here, help him move & be back by Christmas. I really didn't want to be traveling beyond Christmas day, but had resigned myself to the probability.
Hubby is going to take care of Kitty Baby while I am gone, so I can travel faster on the way out. Traveling home again will be slower, 'cuz son's prosthetic leg bothers him when he drives long distances, plus his dog will need rest stops as well, so we will have enough time to do shorter hauls on the way back and still be home by Christmas.
Plus we will spend one night at my brother's house (I think I will suggest son get CoVid tested first, though, since he is in a hotspot, but then so am I.)
Another cool and fun deal: Hubby may be working the Inauguration next month. We will know sometime in the next couple of weeks, I think. We already had reservations for part of that week to be there, so this is just icing on the cake.
Well, I gotta get ready to go get my new hearing aides. I forgot to print out the insurance forms, but the cost of HA's at Costco is super affordable compared to what I paid the last time: I am also happy about that.
