Friday I spent a bit of time in the morning calling all the doctors I am to see. The PCP was easy to reschedule, and I'll see her on Thursday. The first specialist I called, they had not received the referral from the hospital as of yet, but set me up for an appointment - two weeks out. The second specialist, wouldn't even schedule me. They stated they wait for the referral, then call me to set it up. I told them if they haven't called by Tuesday, I was calling back, and having them contact the hospital for the referral. I can't wait forever - my condition won't allow it.
Friday night was our monthly Riders dinner, and I think it went okay. RM had made brownies, that received many compliments on how good they were. I don't think our sales were like the last two months, but we still made profit.
Saturday I spent the afternoon and evening at the Post, just hanging out. Only drank water. RM had given me some packets to flavor water, and these have electrolytes in them. The Wife said it would be good for me to have maybe a couple per day (versus every drink) to help increase my sodium (Dr said it was low). So I spaced out the two I had taken with me. The flavor was Orange Salt, and you are to mix it in like 16 oz of water. I did the packet in a small pitcher, and even then it was almost too strong for me to drink. After I was able to get able a third of the pitcher down, I had them top it off with more water to dilute it some more. But it was good. And to be honest, I didn't feel as fatigued throughout the afternoon, as I have been of late. So bonus all the way around.
Today is Sunday, and the Wife and I were up way later than we should have been last night. She had gone over to the Middle Son's place to sit with his partner and Doc (my only grandson). His partner has some post-partum depression diagnosis, and the Son called asking if his Mom could be with her a bit to help with baby and whatnot. So Wife made it home early hours, which woke me, and we had to catch up on things (we do nightly). I had to get up a couple times to pee (damn water pills) but ended up finally rising around noon.
I had told the Wife I was planning on just staying home today, but think I will be going to the Post to watch football and read. Wife has some video watching and other things to do regarding work (mandatory, but get paid for the time doing it) and I am letting her use my laptop. She brought her work one home, but forgot the charger. So she will be busy doing that, that's why I'm going to the Post.
Tomorrow is Monday, and I have no plans. Tuesday is our Riders meeting. That's what I am doing Monday! Printing out copies for the meeting!
