Thursday afternoon

Well, I got 2 infractions in 2 weeks, on a message board.  I think I had better lay low for a while.  Maybe they are just cranky or I am being a brat but it's their house.

This is my house within reason.  Blogger rules, but they are pretty reasonable.  I can delete hateful comments.  I can post interesting ones.  And I find most of you very interesting.

Some thoughts and then I will tell you about my day:
How much will the hospital and ambulance cost?  Who knows, I haven't got a bill yet.  They should have his Medicare information at least at the hospital.

So I went to Walmart this morning.  That went fine.  I hear ominous rumblings about the meat supply so I got some hot dogs, sausage, and canned roast beef.  I came home and put it away.

I had been home a little while and contemplating a nap when I checked my things to go list on my phone.  I just use the Google Docs app and make lists for various things, like I have all the measurements for my house in one document, my budget, etc.  I would be screwed without my phone.

So I looked and it said 'HOA payment".  Well, crap.  I tried to load the page and it is broken, so I had to call them and explain.  She was very nice, I still have a couple of days and she told IT.

BUT I totally forked my budget normally I am accurate down to the $5's and I totally missed I had this $80 payment coming out.  I am still waiting on my long term storage food to ship.  That is about all that is left in my account; for that, so I needed to make an additional deposit.

So I had to go to my bank.  But I had about $20 in my account and I didn't want to take a Uber.  I might need that for something else.

So I went to take the bus, normally in good times it runs every 20-30 minutes.  Today it was 45.  But it's a free ride right now so there's that.

I still don't know whether it was worth walking half a mile and waiting almost an hour outside but I did save $12 or so.

I got to the bank no line so I made the deposit, and then I walked over to the grocery store.  I was curious.

I was thinking maybe some more canned meat, but the only one they had was with a short date so I didn't buy it.  I bought some soda and did decide to take a Uber home now that I had a little in my account.

So she came pretty quick had the whole backseat taped off with plastic sheeting, I was OK with that.  She was nice and thought the house was the cutest thing ever.  Someone ran a red light and she evaded, got a good tip.

I came in and took a nap.  I was pretty worn out after all the running around.  I slept pretty well, I had 3 cats in my bed when I got up, that was very nice.

I checked on Ron he didn't need much help today and we agreed he will do a bath tomorrow.  My plan is to sit him on the edge of the tub and have him wash feet/legs in the tub, then take him back to bed and I wash the rest bed bath style.  I think that will work as his legs/feet are very sensitive and that way he can handle it himself.

I could have all the empathy in the world but I won't know how he is handling the sensation.  He thinks that is a fine idea.  And he won't be IN the tub so he won't have a problem getting out.

When he was emptying his bottles he would sit on the edge of the tub to do it so I know it will work.

I need a day off tomorrow my only plans are paying the HOA assessment if the page is up, and Ron's bath.  If the page isn't working they put a note in my file.  Worst case I will mail a check Saturday.

Ron had me looking for his radio again (laughing) so I put him in his wheelchair and actually found it.  I also threw away some trash and put all his headphones together in a bag.

I imagine we will find many lost treasures when we do the cleanout.

And his day is coming.

Edit: I forgot to add I found my missing deodorant in Ron's bag of headphones.
