I grow antsier by the minute as we head into the home stretch, is why I started cleaning out the catch-all drawer of my bedside table before breakfast and then went on to dust various bedroom flat surfaces and throw out miscellaneous Stuff that I will never use again, as if I was still able-bodied and able to move around without pain. Very nostalgic, actually.
Midday I walked over to acupuncture, stopping at drugstore on the way to score some tylenol with codeine, to see what it does for pain if anything. Conclusion: nothing much. No different from taking plain tylenol, in fact, except codeine now gives me tummy rumbles. Had beef stew at the neighbouring pub, outside because it was supposed to be warm today, but it was one of those unreliable 18C/ mid-60 days ie there was a breeze so it felt cool. However, enjoy it while it lasts. Indoor pub is not negotiable with a walker- too many steps leading to too heavy doors, and then too few same-level tables.
Came home and vacuumed the downstairs, trying to ascertain which DirtDevil works better. Alas, it seems to be the one whose component pieces keep coming apart. And neither works terribly well because the one remaining canister has lost the hinge that locks it in place. So I unpacked and assembled my Bissell vacuum cleaner and shall try it out tomorrow, and if it works I will put both DirtDevils out on the front lawn for the garbage guys to take.
All this unwonted exercise is at least a change from lying on sofas reading mysteries and doing acrostics, though I did a lot of that too.
