I am anxious to be on the road tomorrow, but not so anxious that I will allow myself to overlook some critical something or other in my haste to get away.
I have done my due diligence on laundry, foods to take, car upkeep and gassing it up, notifying relatives of where I will be and how to contact me there if my cell phone does not answer.
I have my meds packed for the next three days but must assemble stuff in the morning: Hearing aids and charger; cooling container for my meds; charger for my cell phone; changes of clothes (basics) and possibly a book to read tomorrow evening and Saturday evening after the reunion.
This is my first solo trip in a car of any great distance since I drove from San Diego to Oakland when I retired 12/31/1993. That was quite a trip. It was also an hour or so longer than my trip tomorrow will be, and I am 31 years older!!
Happily, I will not be driving at night. It will be HOT, HOT, HOT this weekend, though. Thank goodness for A/C in my car.
