One whole week

So far we are adjusting, it is requiring some more organization and planning before we leave the house each day.
Most of our regular spots are easily accessible by bus and/or train. I am learning to combine trips to save on bus fare(I plan on buying a monthly pass in September), for example a trip to the Dr. is also a trip to CVS and our bank, all within walking distance of the purple line. A trip to work, was combined with a trip to storage, Target and Dominick's. I have to get in the habit of bringing my reusable bags with me.... and look into a cart that is super lightweight and folds up, possibly to the size of my messenger bag :)
Saturday we conquered traveling home from the far west side, it took 2 buses and 1 train, but was relatively painless(that could have been the wine I had )
I have booked my son's dental appointment, 4 months in advance, in order to be sure we got a time that allows for travel via PACE.
Things I am not missing...filling the tank and shelling out $70+, paying to park, paying insurance....
