You mind that cardiologist doesn't comment: "Too many bags of Popcorners." Just teasing Diva, sincerely, I do hope that all is well. My wife's recovery has taken as long as her surgeon predicted, so I hope your cardiologist finds nothing untoward.

Thank you so much kind Sir❣️ Both my cardiologists, yesterday was the main one (I saw the electrical conduction specialist last week), are basically happy with where I am right now. My echocardiogram hasn't changed in two years but shows (as it did before) that I'm dehydrated, something she said yesterday is common with diabetics because we tend to pee more frequently. So she wants me to drink 32 additional ounces of water per day. I was already trying to drink more. I don't usually drink plain water, however. To accomplish that, I'll have to drink from bottles (don't ask me why...it seems harder for me to get water down when I use glasses).

My BP was also a little high. I had changed to taking the pill at night. She said best to go back to taking it in the morning. Neither of them mentioned that I'm overweight. But I let them know that I know I need to lose weight. I hope your wife will continue to recover well and will also get good news from her cardiologist. Heart stuff can really sit one down, so I also pray that her quality of life isn't adversely affected.

Sooo...last night I did go over HS#3's house for the cognitive assessment testing. It took a bit longer than either of us expected, a little more than two hours considering going through the instructions and a couple of minutes of breaks here and there. I think I did fairly well. It consisted in part of duplicating shapes seen on paper (one set using actually two toned blocks), remembering number sequences, both forward and backward and language comprehension skills.

Some of the exercises were very tricky or just plain hard. HS#3 said he'd have problems with a couple of them. One set of exercises was missing some pages but he said I won't have to complete those tasks when he gets a new booklet with the proper amount of tests pages. He feels I did very well.....glad we got that out of the way!

Today I have to disassemble and thoroughly clean Deja's fountain as well as dry and wet Swiffer the bathroom floor. Additionally I need to balance my check books, which I haven't done in a month and a half, and update my budget spreadsheets. In between those tasks, I'll catch up with some emails and social media posts.

What a great opportunity for you to have that cognitive test especially with an HS and not the Dr's office. Glad you passed. 🤗
 
Morning all, on my early walk at 6:45 temp was 46 raining lightly but breezy as I walked around building twice a before breakfast. The forecast calls for rain all day but if its not pouring mid morning or in afternoon, I may go outside for another walk,otherwise I'll walk our long hallways for exercise
The rest of my day do some laundry, read NYT, paper work
Everyone have a good day
 
Headed to the lab shortly to do have my pre-procedure blood work done prior to my heart catheterization at 6:30 a.m. Friday morning then I'll come back home and get mama's yard mowed for her a couple of days earlier than normal because I was told after the procedure to take it easy, not pick up anything over 2-3 lbs. and definitely no yard work or any other even mildly strenuous activity for a couple of weeks....sure will be glad when this is done and over with.
 
Good morning everyone. Another nice day, although it looks like Tropical Storm Melissa is circling around and they are still not sure where it will go. Fingers crossed it will go out into the Atlantic Ocean but some of the islands will be affected at this time in the projection.

@Pepper I will keep you in my thoughts today that all goes well.🤗

Have a good day, everyone. :)

No surgeries today. Canceled. Don’t know why. Last night son and dil were with me for two important doctors visits in my room. My case very complicated. Looks gloomy. Spent night in agony pain.

That’s all so disappointing. The cancelled surgery, the pain, and missing your cats.

TG you have your son and DIL to support you.

Pockets! They have pockets 🎉! There weren't any left in medium in navy, but they had black. I got a pair of pink and a pair of black. I'm sooooo excited.

Yesterday the 3-tier cart I've been wanting for years. Today the jammies.

Guess I'm the epitome of a cheap date because it doesn't take a whole lot to please me:D.
