It will definitely take a few days before I will be able to start spending the entire night sleeping in Bed. Last night, I was able to start the night in Bed, spend a couple hours in my Recliner before finishing the night in Bed. What wakes me and sends me to the Recliner is the Shoulder Pain from laying on my side. I have mentioned before how my joints realign themselves in the Recliner, enough that I can finish the night laying down. The total count for last night was 5 Hours 25 Minutes in Bed, with 2 Hours and 10 Minutes in my Recliner. I think I said the same thing before my Hip Replacement, I am so looking forward to this Surgery. How many people have said that?
After our breakfast snack, while Kathy was getting ready to head out, I was trying to make my Computer just open the programs that I needed to use. I went for my shower while it was restarting only to have bigger problems. I finally just shut it down before walking out the door.
Even at that early hour, the heat was stifling just walking to the Car and we needed to use the Air Conditioning. The easiest most fuel-efficient way to do that, was to drive down the Parkway, then take the Expressway to Howard Avenue. Total travel time, following the speed limit was Twenty Minutes before we were walking into the Canadian Blood Services building. There was no resistance to stay in the Car reading for Kathy. Since I could not get on my personal Laptop at home, I was able to do the Questionnaire at their Kiosk. There were enough News Channels blasting all the noise that Kathy did not do any reading, instead she was keeping updated. When we walked out, I had just made my 167th Blood/Plasma Donation.
We were earlier than most times, so we stopped collect our Mail at Guardian Storage. Since we forgot to get it at all last week, I had to nearly tear it from the Mailbox. The fact that we were starting to get hungry, made finding Wendy’s Coupons a bonus. Not knowing when we would be having supper, we enjoyed the Chicken Sandwich Meals.
When we were headed back to the Car after eating, we both noticed how HOT it was feeling. I dropped Kathy off at the front entrance, before parking the Car. I needed to use a Reusable Shopping Bag to bring everything in. Having seen the Canada Post delivery vehicle near the front entrance, I decided to check what was in the downstairs Mailbox. I had to rearrange the bag’s contents to make it all fit. Over half the contents of the Bag went straight into the Recycle Container.
Trying to clean more out of the Freezer, I placed a Roast in the Slow Cooker with Carrots, Peppers and Onions, Water and Seasoning.
When I turned on my Computer this afternoon, it amazingly worked exactly the way it should have this morning. Checking The Weather Network yesterday showed that today’s Humidex was going to be cooler. Instead it turned out HOTTER at 115 F (46 C) with only 45% Humidity. I then knew why we did not sweat while outside.
It took longer than I figured it would to clean, peel, dice, cook and mash the Potato for supper and the “6 o’clock Local News” was already starting when I served the meal. The Vegetables all came out perfect, but the Roast was like chewing on Rubber. Kathy had watched me do the preparations and said it was the Roast. Even though it was a beautiful cut when we purchased it, this did not come out the way it should have. We will cube the meat and make a Stew with it. That should make it edible.
We watched a few things on the History Channel tonight. Not sure what we’ll be doing tomorrow.
