...Naw, I got nothing.
I'm getting online here a little earlier than my usual mid-day. The Wife has been assigned a student (Again) at work, and that requires her to be at work by 8am, rather than the 8:30-9an she had been doing. So, I set my alarm to assist her getting up. Then I am awake. Usually I can roll over and go back to sleep, but figured I would have to get up in a couple hours anyways, I rose this morning.
Today is a draining day, where I have yet another paracentesis completed. I am hoping that after the week of appointments, and we know pretty much all we can about how bad the liver is, that we will have a time frame in place that I can stop these! Even if we have to do put in a TIPPS device, anything to be able to stop getting the paracentesis done. I have this area on the side of my abdomen about the size of a fifty cent piece, that is a collection of pink dots, from the punctures at these drainings. It looks ugly. And I am tired of going. Whine, Whine, Whine.
Received some interesting news yesterday. My Sissy that is about 12 years my younger, and that still lives in Indiana, sent a text out. Seems she is pregnant. No big deal? At 42? She had gone in for some spotting, and came out expecting!! So I will be an uncle again. I am so used to it just being us older siblings, with only about 2-3 years between our ages, that Lil Sissy is much younger than us. Well, I am glad for her and the boyfriend. Again, wish I lived closer to Indiana so I could visit more. Or maybe this is a sign that I need to get back and visit, for myself as well. I'd love to take a couple weeks and drive back, but I don't see that happening. I mean, it could like if someone died, but otherwise the Wife would want to be able to go with me. She gets upset when I travel and do something without her.
Dumb, little story for the day. Recently, I had ordered some little things from Temu (I am sure you have heard of them). Aside from their biggest catcher ("you only have $1.38 in your cart being shipped from Temu. Add up to $20 to get free shipping!"). Anyways, that isn't what came to mind. I had purchased a smart watch. I know, you get what you pay for, and this was pretty cheap at under $10. The purpose I bought it? To monitor my steps so I can try to stay at the same level daily, or evenly increase daily and be able to know it. Needless to say, I plugged it in to charge, and downloaded the software on my phone. Within the first hour, I was done with the watch. It took all notifications, rings, alerts, alarms, and put them to the watch, instead if the phone speaker. So the watch vibrates (no noise) and in theory, I could see the message, answer the call, etc. if I knew about it. The watch isn't on my wrist, so how am I to hear a late night call for help from one of the kids? Or reminders for certain events that I have to be somewhere at a certain time. Yeah. This is not working for me. So I now have an under $10 smart watch. All you need to do is put the software on your phone. I may look into just getting that basic pedometer for like $6. I dunno.
Welp, I shared more today than I thought I had in me! Reminder RM, the Riders Dinner is Friday!
