Instead of sending their lift vehicle, Center Well sent an uber-like contractor in a tall van. I still cannot lift my feet high enough to get in, and needed help. The return trip was the same.

PCP looked at my legs and agreed he had panicked from the visiting nurse's description, and looking at them I really did not need to come in after all. But while I was there I gave a blood sample.

Will not cancel the phlebotomist visit because I want a fasting test as well.

One good thing is the PCP likes that I'm drinking coconut water - it is low in sodium and high in potassium. And he sent in a prescription for a more conservative dosage of furosemide, which translates as cut the pills I already have into quarters. The prescription showed up on my Walgreen's app, I asked for delivery, but with my luck they will mail it.

3 pm visit from the PT charge nurse, we went on a walk down the block, I left the walker behind and did okay. He said I'm good enough to only have one PT visit a week, and not for long.

New NB sandals arrived, they are slightly large but I think I can drive in them. Also delivered was a Walmart box, shipped from far away, containing a dozen medium size coconut waters. Yay!. Walmart has three modes of ordering: pick up in the store, have delivered from the store, have shipped from afar. That last one is for items they don't stock in the store. My deliver from store orders were stolen by the drivers or lost. A single can of Pringles to be shipped was canceled by them, even the warehouse was out of them.

Jade is crying a lot, again. The drugs are not helping. I sat with her for a bit, and she's quiet when I'm there. Except for purring and meeps.

Very disturbing watching the lame response to Putin's aggression. The Kremlin needs to have a conventional missile land on it.

Banana breakfast, Mom's meals for lunch and dinner. The turkey meatballs in garlic basil sauce was outstanding. Also ate another 4-berry treat. And dark chocolate sugar free pudding.

The lift recliner arrived as I was going to the doctor. Huge boxes. They can stay on the porch for a while. First I need to:
1. move the aquarium recliner to the porch either to give it away or leave it 2 Mondays from now for bulk pickup
2. move the LayZBoy from the livingroom to the aquarium area
3. move the boxes into the livingroom and assemble the new recliner. It needs A/C, I may need another power strip.

Tomorrow:
Fasting
Blood draw scheduled for 11. Probably will be half an hour late if she shows up at all.
Call a mobile manicure service and schedule an appointment (there are two on Yelp)
Try to drive. If it feels safe, drop off an Amazon return at the UPS store, and go to the PO and mail SodaSense cartridges back for refills
