8/3/21

Ensure for breakfast - my last bottle. The plan is to make smoothies from now on. I ran the cutting board (plastic) and blender washables through the dishwasher. Put away the full load from yesterday first.

Had a long chat with my buddy from Motorola.

Printed out my Star Trek convention tickets.

Took the "easy assembly" tables back to UPS, and made a quick Albertson's run for a few salad items and more cut up watermelon.

Watermelon pieces for lunch.

In the mailbox was my updated Humana card with the new PCP. And a very hot key (110F in the shade but no shade on the metal mailboxes) with the bin number worn off. Bin 6 needed a key, and inside was a package with two packs of Werther's sugar free hard caramels. Those are my go-to hydration alternatives since I'm not supposed to drink a lot.

Read the news, no streamers to watch,  turned on Tivo and watched some Olympics horse jumping, but could not figure out the route. They did not show anything on the screen to help with that. Was hoping Simone's final appearance would be in this recording, but it will probably be tomorrow. They are not showing real time any more, it's all an edited view of the day before.

Watched some Love Island, PTI and 90 Day Pillow Talk.

Salad and a smoothie for dinner. Chocolate frozen yogurt, a banana, a few strawberries and when the yogurt wouldn't blend I threw in a little soda water. It tasted great but gave me the runs.

Sigh.

The Bachelorette was a total FAIL because she had decided not to use the L word until the final, even though she was clearly in love with one of the guys. He got all in his head about her not opening up to him, and left. Then she had a melt down and left.

The good news is the bozo who was planted by the producers late in the game did not win.

Delivered: soadasense co2 cartridges for the sodastream machine

Jade has been coming out of her hiding places to be petted when I beckon to her, and she will follow my hand to the food bowls. But not to the water.

However she is getting more comfortable jumping onto the kitchen counter.


Spook has tried to get close to her a couple of times but she growls until Spook walks away.

Plans for tomorrow:
Sleep in

When's Day

Back to banana & HB egg for breakfast because out of Ensure

Jade has created a place on the counter between the office and the kitchen. She vaults up to the top of the small freezer in the office and walks across. It's mostly out of sight and out of reach for Spook. Spook has been hiding under the bed, she doesn't deal with Jade's rejection very well.

Olympics did not show Simone's final beam event on the main channel, I had to find it on YouTube. It was probably on the paid channel. She did not do well, and the bronze medal was a surprise to me. But the judges may have raised her score for sentimental reasons. Olympic scoring is very subjective. The Chinese gold medal winner was far, far better, as was the Chinese silver winner.

Watched some Love Island, PTI and Olympics. Set up for Bachelor in Paradise and Married at First Sight.

Watermelon for lunch

Nap at 3

Salad for dinner, streamed for an hour, then meat loaf and corn dinner. And frozen yogurt.

Delivered: tray tables, so I was able to set up the wifi table fan in the bedroom. Got it on Google but not Alexa. There's also a phone app. The one which controls the floor fans.

Opened the louver package. It's big. It's designed for a much smaller inset but I'll give it a try

Plans for tomorrow:
Enjoy the aircon
