I have never liked Florida. Too many thunderstorms. Too much humidity. Too many insects.
I got off work last night at 9, almost three hours later than usual. Because batteries are either scarce in Daytona or overpriced due to the upcoming storm I had to get some in New York before I left. I got almost $90 worth of batteries. Also got no sleep because my flight left LaGuardia Airport at 7 in the morning. Ever since Jet Blue started flying to Daytona Beach I have been flying there, but because they made the flight earlier I left from LaGuardia and flew into Orlando. To get to Kennedy from my apartment would cost me about $70. Why not pay less to go to LGA then spend $50 to get to Daytona Beach?
Flight was great. I had a seat to myself. In fact I had two rows to myself. People are trying to leave Florida and not fly into the storm.
I had made arrangements with a nursing home a day or two earlier for mom to stay during the hurricane. At the time I figured that she and my aunt would have professional care during Hurricane Irma. After I landed I found out the paperwork hadn’t arrived at the nursing home. I had to spend close to an hour navigating with the doctor’s office and the nursing home since I didn’t want the last bed to go to someone else. That caused me to miss the shuttle to Daytona Beach. I eventually arrived home at 5:00.
