Journal - Friday - Journey Jeep

The transmission light persisted on the dashboard,  I drove the Jeep for the week since they did repairs last Saturday.  Today I’m hoping it’s something minor and they’ve said to return in an hour and a half. That’s good news,  
I’m here at MacDonald’s with Madigan.  I wasn’t really hungry. I had my usual breakfast before leaving, yoghurt, boiled egg, banana and coffee.  I liked the Sausage Egg McMuffin .  Tasty but fattening. I believe my lumbar pain would be improved with wait lost. I could lose 50 lbs and be my athletic self or 30 and be my pre covid fit enough weight.  I’m trying to increased my exercise with more walking and swimming.  I think if I’d trade in my Vespa for an electric bicycle I’d increase my exercise.  My Vespa though has multiple purposes and psychological benefit.  We’ll see. I’m working and paying the bank off on the loans for the Thor and the Jeep.  
I’ve not expensive plans this year. Just to return south for the winter with the motorhome. I’m usually spending less those few months too.  
Laura’s coming over today for the weekend. We’ve a week vacation starting next Friday. There’s a July 1 holiday midweek for I will lose a day of work and have taken another day off.  In August I want to move to an RV park with a lake so I can go swimming daily. I did that at Loan Lake, continuing to work but getting a swim in over lunch.These are healthy plans. 
Selling off vehicles I’ve reduced the outlay of insurance and storage so am pleased that I’ll be seeing money coming back to me.  
I have to put some money in the Tax Free Savings accounts to reduce taxes and confirm Doctors of BC support.
I’ve signed up for the Pacific Psychopharamacology course in Sept but have more CME to do. It’d over 5 years.  I’m not going to IDAA this year but will next year.
This Thursday God Willing I’m taking my 29 year sobriety cake though my sobriety date is Sept. 25, 1997.
This weekend I have the Saturday morning MD2 meeting and have to pay the rent for Cariboo RV Park but only a week as I’ll be in Harrison the second week,. I’ve an apt booked with Dr. Readdy for Saturday Morning too.  

That’s the vague agenda,  I’m truly blessed.  Gratitude lists are warranted.
