As we get into the weekend

[aadler]

Today was nice, and Susan went out to do some walking, which conditions haven’t favored lately. (I’m also seeing her, now and then, get up to do things she’s been asking me to do, so she clearly continues to improve.) My own weight loss also continues, but she’s currently less than 20 pounds heavier than me for the first time in a long time, and her progress is at least twice as fast as mine. I’ll outweigh HER before very long.

The weather, warmer today, is supposed to be even better tomorrow … followed by a plunge in temps Sunday, so we’ll be looking at two days at or below freezing, just in time for our arrival at Branson. Then another reversal, and three days later the temps are supposed to hit the eighties. It’ll be nice when March stops throwing its tantrums and settles down.

As far as Branson goes, I’ve gone on and made a reservation. The base price was very nice, but apparently that area mandates a lot of extra taxes, because county, district, and etc. added something like 12% to the bill. The total is still doable — thus my doing it — but I don’t like surprises of that type. To my mind, the price is supposed to be the price; I’m accustomed to taxes, but don’t welcome double the usual rate.

Yeah, I know, life is tough. What am I supposed to do, not complain? Sure, that’s gonna happen.

I have never been to Branson. I look forward to hearing about it.

Got here just before it started raining, so we hunkered in quickly. Be a bit before we start venturing out.
