Two hours later...

After breakfast, went to my cardiology appointment. The appointment was at 10:40, I was there 20 minutes early. It was supposed to be a quick review of last week's echocardiogram. Long story short, I didn't get to see the doctor till 12:40.
She said my heart was at 55%, the function lass was typical of old age, the heart doesn't pull blood back into it very well. Those muscles are not relaxing enough.
Also she did not like my low BP readings. After I left she phoned my urologist and they are having me stop using the strongest of my vascular dilator drugs and substituting something different which was originally for hair loss prevention.
Home, watched the camera clips and two strays are eating the kibble on the front porch and going under the house, but so is a raccoon. And I had to chase pigeons away from the food. Spook was enjoying watching them through the screen door.
Finished my last fruit bowl.
Ma'am spent most of the day curled up on the floor behind the home theater. And making rude noises whenever Spook was line of sight. Spook reclaimed the livingroom cat tree for a while, but Ma'am did not rise to the bait except to make rude noises.
I did 2 loads of laundry including all my Hawaiian shirts. Spook got on the bed to protect them.
I streamed for an hour. A few lurkers, no chatters.
Delivered was a set of bungee cords so I tied down the porch rocking chairs. Also in the box was long plastic drink straws. Kind of too long but better than the too short ones.
Ordered 4 meals worth of Chinese food. Had wor won ton soup for dinner. Excellent broth but the won tons were mostly wrapper and there was less than the usual amount of meats & veggies. $70 for $40 worth of food. Gotta stop doing that.
The Texas sage is greening up a little, and a pair of finches has been in there plucking nesting material. I put the lint from the dryer on the bush to help out.
Did 5 minutes on the exercise bike. Need to move the step stool over there. And not wear pants. Even cutoffs get in the way.
OCD set in, I straightened the quilt on the wall.
Plans for tomorrow:
Depends on when the table for the fish tank arrives
Lots of ironing
Chinese food for lunch
Smith's groc delivery early afternoon - bananas and watermelon & lots of frozen meals
