We slept late. Again. It’s a vacation, however short, vacation rules apply.
We did the usual get and go. Ready to hit the road in an hour. Packed the car and left. Our hotel is only a Nike from the Golden Gate Bridge so we left that way, crossing into Marin County and heading north.
The day is rainy and gray. Traffic not so bad. We made good time. I had dropped off my car at the shop on our way to SF. Emily and I drove to my office and she dropped me there. My car won’t be ready till end of day. Emily headed for home. I headed for my desk.
I worked till 5 and Cara gave me a ride to the shop. I do hope the car is completely done by now. It’s spent the better part of two months in the shop since the turbo install started. It takes a lot, it appears, to get a turbo right. I am also having a couple repairs done while it’s there too. I am thinking it may go in for a tune in a couple months.
I got the car and raced home. I say raced because I want to check out the work. The car is running better than ever. Smoot, and quieter too. So far, so good.
Arrived home, the ladies had dinner going. I love it when I don’t have to help with dinner, only eat it.
We had dinner. I unpacked my bag. We all watched a little TV and went to bed.
Usually, that’s it. I don’t report on getting up to pee in the middle of the night. Nothing to report there. I hope.
We woke up at 2am. Our Cocker was shaking violently and unable to walk without falling over. Not normal. The dog is 16. He has had cancer. He had Leptospirosis. He is on heart meds. And liver meds. He has his own drugstore full of pills to take with breakfast and lunch. It’s amazing he has lived as long as he has. Having said all this we really were not surprised. He has issues. But, Emily was a little over the top on it and woke up Marika to add to the mirth. I just wanted to go back to sleep. We managed to get Jaxon calmed and we decided on what we were doing the next day ie who was taking him to the vet. Then we all tried to sleep.
