The roofers were back to finish the final section. I was annoyed, even though I wanted it done. I spent my first day as the chauffeur for the Sparrowhawk's errands. I drove to the farm store so he could buy eggs, milk, and coffee cream. I just stayed in the car and let him go in and pick up his order as usual. I was trying to make things seem normal for him, although I didn't tell him that. Then we went to the main library branch downtown so he could return books and pick up his reserves from MELCAT. His usual branch of the library is closed indefinitely for repairs due to the recent flooding. After that, I asked if there was anything else he needed to have done. He tentatively advanced the notion that he might get a quick haircut, if it wasn't too much trouble. So we swung by the shopping plaza where he had his shapely dome clipped, and I went into the grocery store to pick up his prescription refills and a few other items.

We were home in time for him to have his monthly Zoom with his high school friends, and for me to put away the food and have a tea break before it was time to take him to his MRI appointments. The neurologist wanted to check on that meningioma and also do a cervical scan to make sure that some numbness in his foot is not caused by pressure on a nerve. We came home and I made toasted cheese and tomato sandwiches and soup for dinner. Both of us are weirdly tired and indignant about it. Hoping to feel more energetic tomorrow . . . .
