Blackout...

10:15 pm power went out in the park just as I was typing. I went to bed. Came back on at about 1 am, google and alexa took a while to let me turn off lights. Spook was asleep next to me when I woke up. NV Energy says it was a power cable issue.

Televisit with my nephrologist from the first hospital stay. She says my kidneys look normal, there is no sign of bladder cancer (but new urologist needs to do one more test, which is scheduled soon) and I can stop taking the water pills if my edema has gone down.

Mobile manicure services were a FAIL, one couldn't find anyone to come here, another doesn't serve my neighborhood. So I switched to a leg bag for the catheter and wet to my old nails place, Glee,  where the owner did my nails. Had to soak off what had not fallen off from the previous place, and now have sparkley gold nails.

She had to apply plastic nail tips on all my fingers to get them even, but that's SOP when it's been 3 months.

Home, watched Married at First Sight, only one couple out of 5 look like they will stay married, but the preview of next week show the husband having cold feet.

High end scanner delivered from eBay, printed the 106-page manual which does not have the explicit instructions I hoped or. Wanted to program it via the PC, but do not have a male to male usb A cable. I have every other kind. Also found a Uniden supply store and ordered a wi-fi dongle, BNC antenna and power supply. It does work, sort of. I need to see if youtube is any help.

2:44 am, will turn out the kitchen light and try to get back to sleep.

Nurse last night called changing our appointment to afternoon.

Another project, and penultimate nurse visit

Waffles and sugar free syrup for breakfast. First time I've used the toaster oven since I got sick. Also sliced up an avocado.

Morning project, it was a little chilly and windy but I got it done. Took the back door camera off the wall because it was not staying connected to the solar panel. Got the carport cam out of the shed and mounted it to the back door cam holder and then the wall, plugged in the solar panel and it worked. Put the back door camera in the shed to monitor the carport. Had to use the app to swap their names.

Nurse visited at 1 pm, she was actually 15 minutes early! She was prepared to change my catheter, but since my urology appointment is coming up soon we decided to leave it. The less it is fiddled with the less chance of infection. She did fix the connection to the tube, which is good because it was leaking. She said I am doing so well that nurse #2 will visit me next week, and then they are kicking me to the curb.

Delivered:
From Home Depot, the replacement kitchen sink faucet
From Naked Wines: a 6-pack of reds. I don't generally drink wine, and when I do it's rose or white. But apparently reds are good for my current condition.
From Albertson's: more berries, bananas, lots of cranberry juice and coconut water. And another bag of small avocados.

Got tired of seeing Putin and Trump on TV, sat on the porch for a while.

Lunch was a bunch of small California rolls which came with the sashimi. Stouffer's turkey tetrazini for dinner. And strawberries.

Ran out of tuners on Tivo so switched to the TV, which has a YouTube button and a Prime Video button. Watched some live feeds on YT then on Prime the first episode of Reacher. His deduction skills make Sherlock Holmes look like a piker. The fight choreography is brutal. I like the hot policewoman. The actor playing the chief detective is excellent, I hate his character already.

Did two loads of laundry: shirts and jeans shorts. Setup the ironing board and ended up ironing all my Hawaiian shirts, because last time I wasn't up to standing at an ironing board and just hung them all up straight from the dryer.

Miracle email from the woman who had fostered Jade, she will come collect Jade tomorrow.

Sit on the porch and watch the rain
