The Cardiologist dismissed me from having to come back unless I develop new symptoms. He said all the tests were basically normal and my heart function is good. He said a low heart rate at night while sleeping is the sign of a healthy heart. As long as it doesn’t start dropping during the day while I am up and about then there is nothing to worry about. I needed good news for a change and he delivered.
I got the living room deep cleaned this afternoon. Found lots of dirt on the woodwork and in the corners. I still need to dust the coffee tables but otherwise it is done. Tomorrow I will do the dining room and kitchen. It feels good to home one big room done.
I am feeling better again. I have more energy and was able to eat a bit more again. I had to take a nap but I got up at 5:00 and couldn’t go back to sleep so got up at 6:00.
I took a late nap so we didn’t have time to take a walk this evening. We walked over a mile last night.
The baby chickens haven’t learned to go in at dark yet. They are easy to catch and put in but tonight there were a dozen of them outside when we went down at 8:00 to lock them up. They got all stirred up and were a pain to catch. Wonder when they will give it up and just go in at night by themselves.
I worked on making masks again today. I have 170 made and waiting a place to go to. Jim talked to David yesterday and David will find homes for more masks for me. I think I will wait till later this week and send him at least 200 this time. Still have flannel pieces to make at least 300 more. Then I am done making masks until later this year. I need to get some other things done around here and prefer to sew than clean.
Jim’s OSHER class starts Thursday. A technical support person called him today and taught him how to do PowerPoint during a Zoom meeting. Hopefully all will go well during his first class. The technical support person will be on the Zoom class in case something goes wrong.
Jim has his desk all made and is now working on sanding it and getting ready to put the first coat of varnish on it. He has started putting my desk together. It will be fun to have new desks in the study.
I have started a list of things I need to do next week when I get released from quarantine. My phone keeps sending me notices that my battery needs replaced. I will make an appointment with Best Buy in Wichita next week and take it in and get that done. I need to go to Costco so will take care of that while I am in Wichita. The dogs and cats all need their annual shots. I’ll have to figure out how many trips I want to take to take in four cats and two dogs. The four cats don’t all get along so can’t take them all at once. I also need to reschedule my mammogram and an appointment with the dermatologist. It will be nice to be able to be out and about again.
Grateful for a good report from the Cardiologist, grateful for the energy to get one big room deep cleaned, and grateful I am feeling better.
