At least it wasn’t the fridge

There is a semiserious joke among docs that any individual who, in putting their keys in a safe place, dumps them in the freezer warrants a dementia evaluation.

On that scale, forgetting my phone and headset in the SFVA Infusion Center is hardly cause for concern. To tell you the truth, I thought I had dumped them in my backpack. Since my Clipper Card was in my back pocket, i didn’t notice their absence until after I was on the 38R and two stops down Geary.

Deep sigh.

Disembark.

Hike back to the VA.

Back up the stairs, retrieve items from the amused nursing staff. Back down the hill, catch the next 38R. Since I had gotten extra exercise, I decided to get off a stop or so early once we hit downtown and headed to Frena’s Bakery.

I deserved goodies right?

Armed with desert for the evening, I caught BART at Powell and headed home.

About Holly

fiber person - knitter, spinner, weaver who spent 33 years being a military officer to fund the above. And home. And family. Sewing and quilting projects are also in the stash. After living again in Heidelberg after retiring (finally) from the U.S. Army May 2011, we moved to the US ~ Dec 2015. Something about being over 65 and access to health care. It also might have had to do with finding a buyer for our house. Allegedly this will provide me a home base in the same country as our four adult children, all of whom I adore, so that I can drive them totally insane. Considerations of time to knit down the stash…(right, and if you believe that…) and spin and .... There is now actually enough time to do a bit of consulting, editing. Even more amazing - we have only one household again. As long as everyone understands that I still, 40 years into our marriage, don't do kitchens or bathrooms. For that matter, not being a golden retriever, I don't do slippers or newspapers either. I don’t miss either the military or full-time clinical practice. Limiting my public health/travel med/consulting and lecturing to “when I feel like it” has let me happily spend my pension cruising, stash enhancing (oops), arguing with the DH about where we are going to travel next and book buying. Life is good!
