Dry today, but windy and cool. Went downtown to get my mail. Hooray! It was there. What a relief! Even got the mail-in form to renew my driver's license. I was hoping I'd get that. The International Permit I got last week isn't valid without a current driver's license, and mine was due to expire next month. Sent the form in immediately. Now I'm all set for another couple of years.
Also got the bill for my Kaiser premium, so I paid that up for the rest of the year. Made another payment on my Visa card. I want to get all my bills paid in full before we leave. There was a strange bill from Radio Shack for "Training Support" in Ft. Worth, Texas, on January 28th. Hey, I haven't been in Ft. Worth for more than forty years, and I've never received either training or support from Radio Shack. So now I have to write them a letter.
Was very happy to receive the Medicare form for the CAT scan I had last July. Kaiser has been holding up reimbursing me, because I hadn't sent them that form. I didn't submit a claim to Medicare at the time, because I'd assigned my benefits to Kaiser, so I thought they'd do it. Anyway, I should have a refund coming of nearly $650. That will come in handy.
Roy has replaced all three of the planks, so Jofian is starting to look like herself again. I'm sure she feels a lot better. She must have felt terribly embarrassed, with her sides open and her ribs exposed for all the world to see. And I feel a lot better, no longer looking at daylight shining through the bow.
This Blog is our mother's logs from her sails aboard Jofian. Our mother, Clare Holt, wrote a log every day and after her first sail to Mexico, she bought a laptop to write and save her logs. She sailed when the World Wide Web was first created, there was not as much on the Internet back then, no Wi-Fi, Internet access was very limited. I know if she were sailing today that she would be putting her logs in a Blog, so I am doing it for her. Mom’s logs to Alaska are on saillogsalaska.blogspot.com.
