Last night I went to bed at 10pm, quickly fell asleep, got up once during the night, finally waking/getting up at 7:15.

I had 2 scrambled eggs with the remaining half of my onion bagel.

My calves are really tight but they loosened up during the morning.

I arrived at Daniel’s barbershop right at 9am but it was closed. I texted him and he arrived 10 minutes later and apologized for his lateness.

After my haircut I took a Didi to Todo Drogas where I purchased packages of: 1 Atorvastatina and 2 Zopiclona for the month for 114,000 pesos.

I walked to Ganso y Castor where I had a latte until about 11am. I stopped in Eduardo Madrid and bought a sleeve of 6 sesame seed bagels then stopped in Ara and bought Teresa 6 Granny Smith apples.

For lunch we finished our supper from last night plus some lentil soup Teresa made.

I received an email from the Illinois Tollway re: another payment of $15.80 that they charged to my USAA credit card. That should be the last of them.

I left at 1:30 and took a Didi to Torre Medica in El Tesoro. Dr. Rendon arrived right on time and we decided to gamble on the easier and cheaper option of a repair instead of going for the more time consuming and more expensive crown. It took about 45 minutes and cost 390,000 pesos (about $100).

I had a latte and slice of carrot cake in Valentina’s before returning to the apt by taxi.

I’m trying to copy my Keep My Notes files from my old A52 to my new A36 cellphones but it isn’t going well.

About 5pm the pigeon parents switched duties: one staying on the youngsters while the other goes for food. I can definitely see movement from at least one of the hatchlings. Still a long way (days? weeks?) from them being strong enough to fly.

Interesting that neither my car rental nor Airbnb rental payments have appeared on my credit card.

My daughter had another ultrasound and all is well. They said they can even see my granddaughter's hair. I knew that was coming, just not this early.

At 6:45 Teresa got off the phone with her mother and wanted to visit her at Wilson’s bar then have supper in McDonald’s. (I think MT is in a hurry to get her present, a new pair of Nike shoes.) I nixed that idea for tonight.

My calves are really tight again as I went to bed at 10pm.
