howeirdThe New Balance size 13 sandals were just a bit too wide, not quite safe for driving. But the Tevas arrived today and they fit well, and I was able to get in and out of the car with only minimal trouble. So I took the too-small Dockers sandals to the UPS store and returned them. It's an easy drive, about a mile and a half, and the only hard part was the [expletive deleted] woman in the mega urban assault vehicle who parked on my driver's side just as I was about to open my door. There was another space she could have used. :-(
But I was able to open my door wide enough to get out, and the Tevas didn't snag.
Then back home.
I was hoping the phlebotomist would show up, so I fasted, and was headache-hungry by the time it was half an hour past her appointment time. By then Quest had sent my urinalysis results from the PCP blood draw so I figured my PCP canceled the appointment. He does things like that without telling me. He also sent a prescription to Walgreen's knowing I had no way to pick it up. I was able to ask for delivery online, but it's delayed till tomorrow. Meanwhile I cut the pills I had in quarters, and took one quarter (20 mg) before bed last night and it filled my catheter bag. Which was the desired result. My legs are a little less sausage-like today.
No breakfast (fasting) lunch was a Mom's meal of Salisbury steak on potato bits and marinara sauce, with some kind of mixed veggies on the side. Another MM for dinner, turkey meatballs in gravy with veggies on the side. And berries for lunch dessert. And strawberries after dinner.
Watched Married At First Sight, one couple is already divorced after 2 weeks, another is on the rocks. In both cases the matchmakers ignored common sense and went with their gut feelings. In the divorced couple's case they chose a man who met none of the woman's requests as far as looks go. One reason they ignored them is she had her heart set on what her psychic told her she was getting. In the second case they pitted two HUGE personalities against each other, a bull of a man and an unrelenting woman set on training him. It doesn't help that he's a slob and she's an OCD neat freak.
Two couples look like they may make it in the long run, though one of them has short term issues. The final couple is working on communicating, but the husband has done some major things to help, such as get a haircut - he gave up his mohawk.
PTI is less interesting for me as we get into golf, basketball and the politics of baseball.
Nova did some false advertising, making it sound like they were doing a show on bionic augmentations in general, but it was actually all about a couple of phenom rock climbers who lost fingers and legs as teens by being stupid, and how one of them learned how to make specialized prosthetics for himself so he could get back to rock climbing. If he had not had a personality-ectomy I might have watched the whole show.
North Woods Law is also false advertising. It should be called New Hampshire Game Wardens. They *are* law enforcement officers, and a lot of their work is giving tickets to ATV drivers who don't have their registration stickers in the right place. But most of the laws they enforce are hunting and fishing.
And of course CNN and MSNBC have only one story to report on, and all of their information is hearsay. :-(
Got a call from urology reminding me my appointment is this Saturday. WTF? I had it on my calendar 2 weeks later. But I can drive to it! Yay.
Tomorrow:
Maybe I'll start on the great recliner project. I also may take a drive to the PO and mail the CO2 cartridges.
Albertson's delivery & hopefully Walgreen's too
