Canceled appointments

Today I was suppose to take my mom to her Dr appt for a follow up on her hip but when she talked to the office and admitted there was possible contact with someone who associated with someone with Covid they refused to see her in case she is a carrier. So instead of taking her I just hung out with her a little longer. We sat on the porch for a little bit. It’s almost 80° outside today. 

Mom has ANOTHER UTI. She really needs to see that specialist the doctor recommended to see what’s causing her to have one after another. She talked to her doctor today and they are supposed  to send over a script for her for now. 

I came home and browned a pork roast and put it with sauerkraut in the crock pot for the day. I’ll make homemade mashed  potatoes later to go with it. I haven’t made it in a long time because of how expensive the roasts have been. When I saw them on sale this time I had to get one. I may bring some of it over to my son tonight. Hopefully he’ll have my plate and container ready from when I sent him other food. I told him I needed them back and he assured me I’d get them back and he’s pretty good about keeping his promises. 

I missed my delivery while I was gone. I forgot the whiskey was supposed to be delivered today and it has to be signed for. They’ll try again tomorrow. Hopefully it’ll get here in the afternoon when I’m home and not in the morning. Otherwise I’ll have to go to the UPS office and pick it up. 

I’m not going to be doing anything else today besides the usual. Got to do the dishes later and finish the dinner but otherwise it’ll be a quiet day. Hope everyone else has a good day as well!

I like how honest your mom is telling the doctors that she has been exposed.  I wonder if that is a good thing or does it matter?

@jaythesmartone I guess it’s good for the doctors.

UTIs are awful. I haven’t had one in years *knocks on wood* but in the past I’ve gone through phases where I get a lot back to back. Cranberry pills, Activia yogurt or really anything with probiotics/a probiotic supplement, cutting back on sugar, and taking showers instead of baths have always helped me break the cycle. I hope your mom feels better soon!
