With today already Thursday, I can say this M-F has come and gone by very quickly, and I will not deny my happiness to some extent. Nothing has happened except the laundry, Chinese food dinner for lunch, and my late afternoon snacks that we're gobbled up within an hour and a half. I was hungry as Chinese food was filling for a short time. I have been watching movies on my Roku Hallmark Mysteries and Movies. Garage Sale Mysteries, Aurora Teagarden Mysteries, Gourmet Mysteries, and an occasional Murder, She Wrote TV series. I have watched Diagnosis Murder and Monk.
I had a bath and my hair was washed today, and I sat in my recliner for a while. I have a lift chair that only cost me $200.
I have taken my late afternoon nap. It was necessary, but now it would be a long night. I have no idea when I will get to sleep. Having dialysis tomorrow from 11:45 AM to 2:45 PM is a new time slot for me until I get used to my surroundings and dialysis machine. I have been going to the new clinic for two weeks, like the technicians, nurses, and staff: social worker, dietitian, and director. The clinic also has nephrology doctors--Dr. A and Dr. S. I have Dr. A back as my doctor. Woo hoo.
Anyway, I am looking forward to my weekend. It will be here once I leave the clinic tomorrow afternoon. I still have to get used to my new time at dialysis. Switching to Monday, Wednesday, and Friday was an easy transition for me. I am glad to have my weekends back where I can return to church once I get a little stronger. No more dialysis weekends!
Since the new clinic opened on July 10, 2023, I lost my dialysis weekend and began dialysis at 11:45 AM to be dialyzed for 2 hours and 45 minutes. I miss my friends who go to dialysis on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday, but that is okay. I see some of them because they switched days as well. I miss B (male), S (female), and Mr. Bears. Mr. Bears because he is not a Green Bay Packers fan--a Chicago Bears fan. B is a Bears fan, too. I will miss other patients as well.
JP is now on vacation. She is going to Mackinac Island with family for a family get together and fun. Will I miss her? I have mixed feelings about her not being here for the next week. She goes every year in honor of family and her husband has been gone for a year and a half now. She wants to go to Mackinac Island every year in honor of her husband now. I get it, but to constantly say some things over and over again as she sounds like she is not taking my job seriously c
