Not much
to report on these days. We continue to hunker down and ride out the storm. I
have ventured out to Starbucks, Jack in the Box, 7-Eleven, plus shopping trips
to Walmart, but, for the most part, we continue to just stick to home. We watch
tv and Lydia does her exercises. Of course, on dialysis days (Mondays,
Wednesdays and Fridays) we make two runs to Albany for that. The other days I
spend at home with both of my girls, making sure they are happy and fed (and have
done their pee pees and poopies).

We finally have doctors calls and home health care visits going this
week. Lydia meets with her primary doctor and her nephrologist via telecon and
the home health care nurse comes this morning.
Deedee was very nice and, in addition to her vitals and a health check,
she took care of Lydia’s arm where we scraped her bruise and left an open
wound. It was healing nicely but we needed some extra help with more appropriate
bandaging.

Today I spent some time helping my sister move our friend, Lois, who has
been making plans to move to Missouri for some time now. She had a guy, flying
in to Eugene, who was going to rent a van and come get her and they would drive
back to Missouri. She had some stuff to take to Habitat for Humanity plus I
needed to remove her in-wall air conditioner and replace the plate, which I
did. We got the items moved and took some stuff home to keep and/or dispose,
but this story continues because there were issues with the credit card rental.
She is still here.
Wednesday, Apr 1st, 2020…… April Fool’s Day – but not too
much fun to be pranking today. The guy, Steve, is now not going to pick Lois
up. The van was reserved by another person in Missouri and he was not allowed
to check it out and drive it. He did not have his own credit card so he couldn’t
do that option, so everything came to a halt. Now, the plan is for her friend
Mary, to fly to Portland and come get the van. Steve will fly home and Mary
will drive Lois back. Since all of her furniture is now gone, Lois stayed with
a friend last night and will stay in a motel tonight. I know – it’s a crazy
situation and has been driving my sister nuts. She’s done all she can to help but
wants things to work out for her friend. Hopefully, tomorrow they will get on
the road.
Lydia had
Dane, a physical therapist, come by this morning and showed Lydia some new
exercises, which she will be doing each day, although not in the same repetition
on dialysis days. Our neighbor, Lou, came by after we got back from dialysis, to
drop off a nice flower bouquet – thanks Lou! We called in an order for a wet
burrito from Los Dos Arbolitos and Penny went to pick that up for us. Thanks,
Sis. Very tasty. We ended up the night watching The Masked Singer (Yeah – I got
the White Tiger picked correctly) and then headed off to bed.
