04/08/21 (2) Multiple Frustrations.

Well, my first game in the Essex Invitation League might have gone better if the opposition had actually turned up on their own piste. Apparently one of their players was injured and they sent a "Cancel" message out but it never reached us. So we played some friendly doubles instead and then headed for home. Interesting, if not very attractive piste with a thicker layer of gravel than usual making it hard to judge the length of roll.













I had a Furosemide first thing and it worked well, producing Niagara-like flows within half an hour or so. Spent most of the day waiting for a call from the burglar alarm man saying what time he was coming, and when we finally ran out of patience and 'phoned their office we found that the appointment hadn't been "confirmed" and because of staff shortages they wouldn't be able to get to us until Friday. So a rather frustrating day, but at least the bowel management plan is still working.

Had a poor dex night's sleep - my ring recording a little under three hours. I kept waking up thinking I had to be up in case the burglar alarm man arrived early... No dex tonight,so hoping for rather better.

Back to Springfield mid-day tomorrow for bloods, more Zometa, next month's meds, and probably another "professional" COVID test. Then backgammon and off to Birchanger for more friendly boules. Going to be a busy day.
