We are waiting until we see the weather in Fort Lauderdale tomorrow morning to finalize our plan for the day, but we're definitely NOT going to be spending three hours sitting in Club Fusion while they sanitize this ship. The water taxi is one option. Or taking a long walk down to and along the beach. Regardless, we'll need to run to Walgreens or Publix to pick up a few things, most notably more Wet Ones wipes and Dial Complete Foaming Hand Soap. And toothpaste (I was way, way off with my projected use on that, and I can't figure out why). And more mouthwash. Dental hygiene is obviously a fixation with me!
Sister Frances Xavier was old when I had her as a teacher in the 1960s, so I'm certain she's no longer with us, but I have to give her her due...when she said fractions would be an important part of our lives forever, she wasn't kidding. They're way more important than calculus and geometry and even most algebra. I've never once in my entire life needed to figure out when two trains leaving from different stations at different times, traveling towards each other at different speeds are going to meet, but I'm constantly fractioning in my head this winter. We're now 5/12 of the way through our cruise. If I brought two of something, I should still have 1 and 1/6 left; three of something- 1 3/4 left. Four of something- 2 and 1/3 left. Forget fictional story problems; this is reality math.
