Good goat times today. Back to the happy place, and the happy goats. Still enjoying all the branches and pine. They have a lot to snack on.
It was a bit cold in the morning, but we got a good deal of sunshine and it was pretty nice. Lots of visitors today, kids running around in the pen. Many of them are a little developmentally challenged in various. Some of them run around and can be a bit loud. Bella and Luna aren’t fans of that. But Sky, sky is just sweet and patient and not phased by any of that. The bet petting goat.
Good classic goat fun today, and now I’m going to have me some good classic soup. Onwards and onward.

Not doing so great today.
I was going to get up and exercise today. I got up at 8 am. At 8.15 I was back in bed. Too depressed to function.
Got up again around 1pm. So that was a nice 13 hours in bed.
And then I ordered cake and pizza.
I am lost in my head. I can’t find my way out. I need to… do better.
Since my birthday is has just been… faltering. Falling apart. Silently drowining.
People who haven’t known depression don’t know how crippling it can be.
And addiction. Don’t tell me fat and sugar isn’t an addiction. I just want to eat junk food constantly.
I have spent more than 2000dk/300usd on that food delivery site this month! That’s so fkn dumb and insane. I guess it’s a good thing that site is going to close in Denmark?
I have spent almost zero kroners on that site the previous five months. But since my birthday I just fell in deep.
And I feel like sht.
Okay. Well. It’s the last day of March. Last day of my birthday month. April is going to be better. No fooling. No more junk food or cake. I have to cut myself off, because I can’t have a little. If I have a little I will have a lot, and want it all.
Now I feel sad and depressed and tired from sleeping too much and hating myself for being weak, and so on and so forth.
I mean, I’ll be fine. Just not today. But tomorrow’s another day. The first day in the rest of our days.

There are three men. Standing side by side. With their sides to the camera.
They are all wearing top hats.
The top hats are three different sizes.
The man on the right is wearing a tiny top hat. Like a thimble balancing on his head.
The man in the middle is wearing a perfectly normal sized top hat.
The man on the left is wearing a comically large top hat, it is so big that it covers his entire head and goes down over parts of his shoulders.
…
That was from my dreams last night / today.
I really miss my wild and crazy dreams. Especially my vivid ones. It’s tempting to go back to the crazy sleep schedule, to get the greams back. Sleeping for 14-15 hours one night and then 2 hours the next. I’m sure it was very unhealthy. But the dreams … so wonderful.
Thank you everyone for the support today. I will try to do better, for myself. April showers bring.. something flowers.
Oh and, i got a message back from my doctor. After one doc had said to take 1 potassium pill a day for two weeks, and the next doc said 4 pills for 5 days. Doc said it was fine to do it for two weeks, but she recommended I take at least 2 pills a day. So that’s what I’ll do. Take 2-3 potash pills for two weeks and then go get my bloodwork done again. And taking my new blood pressure meds too of course. And hopefully eating better and exercising and goating. That will make me feel better, I know it will. The bad eating and being lazy feels good in the moment. But then it feels bad. It feels bad physically and mentally. Exercise and goats and eating better, that doesn’t give the same immediate rush. But it maks me feel better physically and mentally over the long stretch. I will do my best, that’s all I cans do. I yam what I yam.
And where did I leave my fancy top hat?!
Maybe it was a goldilocks dream. This hat fits me juuuust right…

Got an hour twentyfive on the bike today So that’s good. Not the best of efforts. But good to get back on the horse. The metal pedal horse.
I have leftover cake and some other junk. I’m going to party with that tonight. And then I’m all out fo bad stuff. And I will make it my prime directive to not order new stuff. Not from the grocery site, not from the junkfood site. Have to not give myself the option of eating uhealthily.
And then try to focus on goating and exercising. And get out of my head and to a better space.
Wish me luck.
I’m pretty durn tired now. Because I slept so much the night before, I didn’t get a lot of sleep last night. In fact I got up and out of bed and did computer work for most of the night. And then napped for 2-3 hours in the morning. Not the smartest way to be, but having a proper sleep schedule is another thing to work on.
Even though I miss the dreams…

I don’t know if there’s room for April pranks in this post-truth world.
Everything that has happened the last couple of years could be a fool.
It’s like one of those scifi things were you think you’re out of the thing, but the thing is actually still happening. Like the Rick & Morty episode with the hole of fear and they’re think they’re out of the hole but they’re actually still in the hole.
I think it maybe be April 1st 2024 and we think we’re out of the prank but we’re actually still in the

Last night, Denmark failed the final attempt at qualifying for the World Cup in soccerballs.
I am pretty damn disappointed.
Mostly because that means we won’t get the chance to try to convince our soccer assoc to boycott the tournament.
You know I love the soccerballs, but I would have fully supported a boycott. Because of Fifa and because of America, hosts. No offence to my American friends. But I’m pretty sure you don’t care about soccerballs, you might not even know you’re hosting the thing!
To be fair it’s also co-hosted by Canada and Mexico, countries I have more respect.
But anyway. There was a time I would have been devasted on missing the World Cup. In fact I thik I when we missed the last one in America. That was in 1994. The tournament that followed one of the biggest miracles of the sport, Denmark winning the 1992 Euro cup. Missing out on the following World Cup, hosted in glorious (at the time) America. That was a big hurt.
But now. I don’t care about the sport so much. Partly because it has gotten worse and worse. Partly because I can see less and less of it. And partly because life’s too short.
And then the courruption of Fifa and the insanity of what America is doing to the world. I would have happily sacrificed our spot in the World Cup to send a pointless message that would have accomplished nothing.
Instead we went out on penalties to the Czechs. Oh well.
For the first time in my life I’m not even subscribing to the tv stations that have the right to the Danish league of soccerballs. Maybe I’m just losing my love of the game completely. I still want the club I support to win but… that club isn’t the same anymore, the game isn’t the same anymore, my eyesight isn’t the same anymore. Everything gets worse as time marchines on, including the sports. Just a delivery mechanism for gambling and sportswashing now.
Hope you Americans enjoy the WC! The only thing that pains me is that Sweden and Norway are going and we’re not. That stings.
Alright, enough balltalk.

Unfortunately I am still struggling. Didn’t make it out of bed to go goating this morning. More hours in bed. Great dreams, but not what I wanted to happen. It’s not good when the dreamworld gets a grip on me and keeps away from the real world.
But we fight to live another day.
I’m not feeling good mentally, but it will be okay. We’re only two days into April, still time to make it good.
One day a day. Cooked up soup and it was good. Healthy and cheap compared to all the junk I’ve been devouring.
Onwards and warts on.

Thing I don’t like: Facebook (on my end at least) has changed layout, the reactions/comments/share stuff is in a new place, and I don’t like it because change is always bad.
Good thing: Measured my blood pressure today and it was fine. I hope the new meds are working.
A couple of new TV things I like:
Rooster. I have only watched the first episode, but I feel like if you like Steve Carell doing his Steve Carell thing then you will like it. And I like Steve Carell’s thing.
The Fall And Rise Of Reggie Dinkins. Tracy Morgan’s thing is pretty different from Steve Carell’s thing, but if you like Tracy morgan’s thing then you’ll probably like this show. I slept on it for a while because it has to do with American feet balls, and I have zero interest in that in any way. But it’s basically 30 Rock in a post-sport setting. And I love 30 Rock. I also love Bobby Moynihan and he’s good in this. If you like fast-paced goofy dumb comedy, this is fun.

Do you think snakes ever wish they had legs?
Because sometimes I wish I didn’t have legs.
I mean, not often. Just when I’m walking down a particularly long set of stairs. I know it would be smarter to wish for the elevator to not be out of order, but sometimes not having legs seems more attainable. Anyway, did you want a refill?

Got an hour and a half on the bike today. So that’s decent. Not the greatest effort. Tired legs and I got winded faster than I usually do. But I did something. I had a difficult morning inbed. One of those “No I’m not getting up, I’m going to roll over and sleep all day and then get up and order pizza”
So the fact that I got out of bed and got exercise done, that’s pretty good.
After the exercise I did some chores. Got my freezer defrosted. It wasn’t too badly built up, so it wasn’t too hard. But it’s still satisfying to see those ice flakes coming off.
It feels like a struggle right now, every day, to not do the unhealthy. But today at least I won the battle.
Hope you’re all winning your battles out there. Not a lot of people get to go through life without battles. Keep on fighting that good fight. Unfortunately there are a lot of people fighting the bad ones.

Sigh. I will have to buy a new TV. / computer monitor.
I have known for a while I would have to. It’s working worse and worse.
It’s hard though, with my blindness. It’s hard sometimes to see if the screen quality is down or my eyesight is down. There have been times when I have felt like my eyesight was getting worse and worse, and then I realise the screen is getting dimmer and blurrier.
It’s weird, it’s like the top half of the screen is getting dim and unclear, while the bottom is still pretty clear and with brightness in the whites.
So there will be llines of text at the top of the screen that I can’t read without getting my face completely up to the screen. And then lines at the bottom that I can read okay.
I have tried to ignore the problem, but I will have to do something about it. It’s a 11 year old TV, so it’s not like it’s unreasonable that I have to get a new one. I just dread getting new things. Change is really difficult for me. There are things that I am dependent on, and what are the odds that I can get a new TV that will work the same way, I am always scared of getting new stuff and then finding that it doesn’t work they way I need it.
Can you even get TVs that aren’t smart devices anymore? I suppose if I just don’t hook it up to the internet then it will be a dumbTV. I barely us it for TV purposes. Sometimes I watch the soccerballsports on it, but as I wrote about recently, I barely do that anymore. Sometimes I’ll have the news channel going, but that’s mostly for audio. So it’s really 99% to be used as a computer monitor.
There’s also the transport issue. I guess I’ll have to see if I can find something suitable and if it can get delivered easily. Maybe I could pay Jeanette or Helle a little to help me pick one up, it it’s one that has to be picked up. Jeanette has a car, and I think Helle has talked about being able to borrow a car. So maybe that could be an option.
I don’t need a big or expensive one. With my blindness, it’s not super quality that’s important. It just needs to work right with my PC. A 32 inch one what can take PC input via hdmi. Must be possible, and shouldn’t be very expensive. But as always, I worry too much. But I think a new one would make a pretty big difference. There are times I can barely read parts of the screen. So I really really need to get working on this, finding a suitable one and getting it arranged.
I just hate dealing with big stuff like this.
I would also like a new computer. This one is getting old. A couple of times recently it has spontaneously rebooted when I put too much strain on the system. Doesn’t deal well with 4k video or having too many programs running. But a new computer would be a lot more expensive. And it would force me onto Windows 11. And all the worries if I could get it to work the ways I need it to, all the accessibility stiff and settings and programs I need. And that would be such a big purchase that I really couldn’t afford to get it wrong. I will postpone that as long as I cna i suppose.
But the TV. I need that soon. Can’t avoid that for much longer.
I also wanted to visit the local second-hand store to see if they have a tv furniture/table I could get. And maybe a dog house for Sky to be in when it rains… but I never got around to going back to the store after that one time when it was closed when I got there.
Anyway. There’s stuff to do. Have to prioritise the TV now and get that done. With my extreme vision problem I really can’t afford to be furter impeded and impaired by a bad TV.
When is Black Friday again?!

That’s all for now.

Good goat times and museum times today.
Ahh, I needed that. Getting out of my head and into better company. So much nicer. Felt good to get out.
Pretty nice day out. Cloudy, but the sun came through at times, and it was doing its thing. Comfortable temperatures. I had my winter coat on, but I had to leave it open most of the day, it was almost too warm to wear it. May be time to bring out my spring jacket soon. Maybe even t-shirt weather, soon? Nice anyway.
Good to see Jeanette again too. She had an understudy today. Intern. Named Conrad or Konrad. I think she said he is 15. He has some issues that are making it hard for him to go to school, so they’re trying it out to see if our place may be something for him, while other stuff is being worked out. So he’ll be Jeanette’s intern. He came in and fed the goats some carrots, seemed nice enough but I didn’t really interact with him much. I hope this will be useful for him though and help him find his place in life. I know it’s a nice place in my life.
Lots of other visitors too. Kids petting the goats. I was sitting down at the podium with Bella and Luna, and I looked and saw Sky with a circle of kids around her. She’s such a good petting goat. Luna can be a little feisty at times. And Bella doesn’t feel super comfortable with kids when they are loud or moving around a lot. She will often withdraw from them. But Sky will just stand there and let them pet her and she’s perfect and calm for it. So sweet. Like Mia used to be.
And I got lots of goat time of course, snuggles and cuddles and handing out treats. The goats were working on a big haul of branches too. Jeanette and her family are in the process of acquiring some neighbour land. Lots of wooden stuff that needs to be cleared from it, so she’s bringing in big bounties of branches and pine for the goats. The pine gets eaten quick, and then the branches are good for nibbling on. So the goats got a lot to work on now.
And then Helle came to get me for our museum trip. But I’ll write more about that later. Need me some soup now. But a good start to the week, feeling much better than last week so far.

I finally managed to hand over Keiko’s original art piece to Helle! She was delighted with it, her face lit up as I gave it to her.
Thank you so much again, Keiko. From the both of us. I know Helle loves it.
I had a lovely visit to the museum again with Helle. She showed me their exhibition about activism. Some of you are aware that the neighbourhhood I live in has kind of a reputation. And a lot of history. And one that has called for a lot of activism over the years. I won’t go into all the details here (you’ll have to visit the museum!) but Helle has been a part of a lot of it, she truly is an activist. Someone who cares and someone who helps. As I have well found out. And there was a lot of really fascinating history, I am glad she could tell me about it all. It was very interesting and cool, and it is always nice to spend time with Helle. She is just the best.

Got an hour fortyfive on the bike today.
Trying to get back onn track. The last almost two weeks I had only been on the bike once. The last week was pretty bad for me. Mentally and physically. To be honest, I think I ordered pizza or cake every single day, and no exercise.
So it’s pretty much like starting from scratch. This is how it always goes. I make a lot of progress, and then I throw the progress away and have to start again. The rollercoaster continues. I will always be a fat person, no matter how much I weigh. It has left deep scars on my mind and body. And it is a constant struggle.
But hey, at last I’m working hard. Again. And aftet the really bad last week, this week has started better. With goats and Jeanette and Helle and exercise. Back on track, just have to keep moving forward now instead of sliding backwards.
The doctor’s visit will be interesting… pretty sure I’m doing better than at last checkup, but is it enough? And what about my blood pressure? Well, I’ll find out I guess.

I have an update in the exciting heater/ventilation saga. Now now, hold you applause until AFTER the post.
Well, things are not LESS confusing.
To recap. I had the service visit last Wednesday to fix heater measurer, because all the time since I moved in I have not had any readings of how much heat I was using.
So it took a couple of days but then the readings appear. It says I have used 2061 kWh in 2026. The 2061 kWh are shown plit over Wednesday/Thursday/Friday.
And in comparison it has shown that the apartment used 891 kWh in 2025.
So. 2061 kWh is a lot. But for 4 month, knowing I use a lot of heat. Not catastrophical.
Okay, so now to the new information. Yesterday I come home and check the readings. The total amount for 2026 is no longer 2061 kWh. It has changed. Considerably. Can you guess what the new reading is?
Okay, I’ll tell you. 200 kWh.
It has changed from 2061 kWh to 200 kWh. For all of 2026.
That is a considerably huge difference.
So yeah now I don’t know what to think. Is the new reading correct? It took a few days to get any readings, did it take a few days more to get everything correctly added up?
I don’t know.
If 2061 was correct then I’d alreay used more than twice what was used all last year.
If 200 is correct, well then I’m on track to use less heat than what was used less year.
Also the readings are no longer just showing usage for Wed/Thur/Fri. Now the usage is split out over all the days. So that seems more accurate.
Sorry, I know this is all technical and boring an irrelevant to everyone else.
But hey. I can only assume that the newest reading is the most accurate and that my heat usage is not as alarming as I had feared. Right?
It will certainly be interesting to see in September or October when I get the real bill and see what I have to pay.
At least the measurer seems to be working as it should now. The days I’ve had the heat turned off it reads 0. And the days I’ve had the heat on it reads some usage. So it seems to be working as intended now. I’m just not sure if I should trust the 200 number. But in any case, the catastrophical bill fears seem to have been vanquished. And that’s a relief.
I have more to tell, but it’s getting late now and this is already way too boring. So look forwards to a further update tomorrow, less techical thankfully!
Trying to keep a more optimistic frame of mind and not sink back into the darkness.
Doing my best not to obsess over things. Haha, how’s that working out for you? I mean me.
One day a day.

Got an hour thirtyfive on the bike today. Feel like I’m back on the right track wih that. So I got that going for me. Onwards and around the twist.
So, I teased another update on the heater/ventilator business. Let’s get to that. It’s nothing important, just more of the usual rambling. You can skip it all.
I left the ventilator coompletely uncovered for a day, and it didn’t seem to affect my heating usage. Which is good I guess.
It did make me feel cold and annoyed though. Storming through my apartment.
So I have covered it up again. But this time I took the fb advice and covered it with cloth. A couple of wash cloth things yesterday, and added a third today. Previously I had covered it with plastic and just completely stopped the airflow. Which was nice for keeping things warm, but probably not smart or healthy.
With the cloth over the ventilator I can feel a little air going through. But it’s way less loud and stormy.
So I guess I will have to see how that works out. Is covering it with 3 doublelayered cloths still going to let it freshen the air in here? Take out the carbon dioxide and give me enough oxygen to breathe? I’ll find out! And see how it affects how warm I feel.
Now that the heater is giving me readings, I can experiment a little on how much heat I want on to find a balance between feeling warm enough and not spending too much money on it.
It’s still kind of a mess, but at least I can make some better informed decisions and have less uncertainty. Assuming the readings are correct… I’m still not sure how the 2026 reading it could change from 2061 kWh to 200 kWh like it did.
But whatever. I’m looking on the bright.
I also got a reply back from a mail I sent to the housing association. When the heater still wasn’t giving readings a couple of days after the service visit I sent a complaint about that. I only got an auto reply on that. When the heater started giving readings, I sent another mail and was a little snippy. Basically saying “I don’t know if you guys are getting my emails since I have only gotten autoreplies the last 4-5 times I have mailed you..” but I told them that I was now getting the readings and that was working as it should. And then I told them that I was still not getting information about the temperature and humidity levels in the apartment. At the old apartment I got readings for that. And at this apartment there were still two fields on the website that looked like it was supposed to show that information. When I load the site the bar at the tops says “? deegrees / ?% humidity” and it looks like it’s trying to bring in that information, but then it gives up and the fields disappear completely. Well, I did actually get a reply to that last email and the guy Oliver, whomst I have talked to on the phone before and seems like a really nice guy, told me that yeah that function was only available in the old apartments, not in the renovated apartment. I think that’s a little odd and too bad, it seems likea good function. It was nice to have information on temperature and humidity and you could click on the numbers and it would give you a little text info too, saying things like “the temperature in your apartment is appropriate” or “the humidity in your apartment is to high, here is some advice on how to correct”. I thought that was nice and helpful. But I guess we can’t have that anymore. Seems like renovated apartment should have MORE info and functionality, not less. But ok.
Glad I got a reply back. I now from Helle that they have been understaffed, they just got a new super too. That’s probably why the information has been harder to get.
Oh and they promised to get my name taken off the door at the old apartment. Again. I had complained about that too. I don’t think I mentioned it on here, but when I came home from the goats and museum on Monday, I went over to the old apartment to check if my name was still up there. As my dad had claimed when he had mistakenly gone to the old place. And my dad hadn’t been confused about that part. My name was still on the front door. I had complained about my name still being on the mailbox and door months ago. And they had promised to take it down. I guess I must have only checked that they took down from the mailbox, because they did remove it from there. But they hadn’t removed it from my front door. It’s what, five months since I moved out? Not that it matters so much, as long as my name isn’t on the mailbox. But it’s still not great that they haven’t gotten it removed from the apartment door.
I guess renovation on that building must be about to begin. And my apartment will be completely taken down. So I know at least my name will be gone by then!
Yeah, April is coming up. If I hadn’t gotten the other apartment offers, now would have been around the time when I would have had to move out and get everything done in one week. I sure am glad that it didn’t go down like that. That I had all the extra time and help and have been settled into my new place for months. It would have been a lot harder if I had to rush through things now.
Anyway. I think that’s about the end of teh heater/ventilator saga. I’m still going to do some experimentation on my preferred settings. But there shouldn’t really be any news about the situation anymore, so hopefully can breathe a sigh of relief and not have to suffer through tome long posts about numbers and technicalities. I’m like the heater/ventilator version of Tolkien describing foliage.
Alright. I need some food. Not pizza unfortunately. But I’m progressing.

Good goat times today. A strong cold wind. But some nice sunshine too. The goats were busy with a bunch new pine trees and branches. They hit the jackpot with Jeanette’s land acquisition. Lots to munch on. And lots of visitors too. Kids in the pen meeting the goats. Always sweet.
Later on Bella got quite worked up and started running around and doing pirouettes. I have rarely seen her so animated.
i have more to talk about, but I need some soup io me now. Priorities!

Not just goat times today. I also had my doctor’s visit.
Got in a little panic yesterday, when I checked up on the traffic info. Good thing I did, because it turns out that just a couple of days ago they started some construction work downtown and the bus I take to the doctor’s office won’t be stopping at the doctor’s office few months. Whoops. So of course I immediately got anxiety and started worrying.
I don’t like taking the bus. There are people on it. And since losing my eyesight it has also introduced a lot of anxiety about getting off at the right stop and finding my around etc.
I have a couple of bus routes that I have used most of my life, and I feel pretty comfortable with them, as long as I know where I’m going. But once it gets into unkown territory, so to speak, then I start to worry. What, me worry? Yes, always.
I even thought about calling my parents and asking if they could help me get down there. But I didn’t want them to have to get up at 6 am to come help me with something I ought to be able to do on my own.
So I had to start researching alternate routs. Thankfully, even though the bus doesn’t stop at my doctor’s office now, it still had stops not too far away. And I was able to find my way from that stop to the doctor’s office. As always, the worrying was the worst part. Actually doing it wasn’t too bad. Although walking around in unfamiliar streets just is never going to be easy for me.
Anyway, got to the doctor’s office about 25 minutes early because I had gone way too early to give myself enough time to find my way. So I had a nice wait in the doc’s office.
Did the blood and urine tests, some heart listening and weighing in. My blood pressure is indeed too high. And I got answer back later in the day that I was low on Kalium. Which turns out to be the Danish word for potassium. I didn’t know we had a different word for that.
Anyhoo. So two new medications to add to my already huge cabinet of various medicins and supplements. One for blood pressure, one for potassium. And I have to go back in a couple of week to get another blodo test to see how thet pot ash is doing and in a month I have to measure my blood pressure and see if it has gotten better.
So we’ll see how that all goes. The doc said that it wasn’t too unusal for diabetics to need the blood pressure meds eventually.
And of course I’ll try to keep on working on the diet and exercise. It really is fun when your mind is screaming at you JUST GIVE UP AND DO THE EASY THINGS THAT MAKE YOU FEEL GOOD while your body is falling apart and begging you to take it all seriously. Oy.
And speaking of busses, my bus card stops working in a couple of months as they’re phasing that card out. I have to figure out how to get the new kind of card, since I don’t have a smartphone. Everything is a fkn app these days. So I hope I can figure that out. We’re Denmark, why don’t we just have free public transportation? You want people to not pollute and spend energy with all the cars, but you’re making bus transport worse and worse for people out in my neighbourhoods and
okay I’ll shut up. Don’t want my blood pressure to explode anymore than it is.
Thank goodness I managed to go see the goats after the doc visit. I have a hard time doing more than one thing a day. My capacity is low, I require compartmentalising. Especially with the bus anxiety today too. But I managed goating, and that is always good.
One day a day, keep on goating.

Oh by the way, I think I have identified the crowing birds that we have at the playground, and that sometimes crow up a giant murder in the morning.
At least according to Helle. They are rooks.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rook_(bird)
I think I previously have thought they were several different kinds, I remember thinking they were Hooded Crows. Well, the rook is part of the crow family I think. So it’s all related. But what’s murder of rooks called then?
They are pretty smart. I can tell that they know I often throw out some peanuts to the goats when I leave. And sometimes in the mornings if I can’t get the welcome peanut to Sky because the big girls are keeping her away from the gate, the rooks will try to swoop in and steal the peanuts I throw to her. I think the rooks recognise me, just like the goats do.
Squawk.

Do you ever feel like you’re the bad guy in a Columbo episode and life keeps going “oh just one more thing..”
I hope I can have a quiet summer. I would like that. A quiet summer with goats. Either that or alien invasion.

I have bit the inner lining of my lip and there is protrusion because of it and I keep accidentally biting into the protrusion. It’s officially I am cursed and everything bad always happens to me.
Anyway, i’ll try to find a way to survive this latest slander up on my person.
Today I got a message from my doctor. Saying that I should take 4 of the potassium pills a day and come in on Tuesday for a test.
Yesterday I got a message from another oft the doctor’s of the clinic saying I should take one potassium pill a day and come in for test in 2 weeks.
So now I have to figure out which of these orders I should actually follow.
The message I got today was from my regular doctor, so maybe I should follow that. But I don’t like the appointment time she has set for me on Tuesday. So I’m going to follow the other doctor’s orders instead, so I don’t have to go in until two weeks from now. Hopefully that’s okay. I don’t know if it matters a lot. Four pills a day for four days, or 1 pill a day for two weeks. Whatever, I can’t talk to them until Monday so I’ll have to see what they say then. But for now, I’m doing one pill a day and counting on going in two weeks.
I just wanna bury my head in the sand. And then bury the rest of me in the sand. And then wait until it’s high tide. And maybe take a trip to Thalassa.
I’m going to need another shot of Pepsi Max. Pour it up, Lloyd.

Good day. Hello. It’s a brand new day, wouldn’t you know.
I took my first doses of the new potassium and blood pressure meds this morning.
After 2-3 hours, and doing chores and organising in the apartment, I checked my blood pressure. And it was a fair bit lower than I usually have around that time of day. So, does that mean the meds are working already? Or placebo effect? Or just random nonsense? I don’t know man, you tell me. Just like people in charge of America’s health system, I have no medical expertise or knowledge.
But hey, it’s better than if the readings were higher.
And as for the conflicting doctor’s orders about the potassium pills, I have decided to go with the “one pill a day for two weeks” way. So I’
ll cancel the appointment my regular doc made for me on Tuesday. And if they aren’t happy with that they’ll just have to tell me. Hopefully it’s fine.
Other than that, I’m just going to take it easy over the weekend. And NEXT week I’ll work SUPER HARD, and I mean it. Here we goooo.

I managed to order my new bus card today. Turned out to be super easy. At least the ordering process was. Now I have to wait for it to arrive.
This will be interesting. As some of you know, the Danish postal service shut down their letter carrying business this year. And it was taken over by a private company. And they have had a really hard time living up to their new responsibilities. The media and social media have bee full of reports of people not getting their mail, mail being literally dumped in trash cans and streets, huge delays. Seriously impacting things like hospital and banking stuff. People not getting their new bank cards, hospital tets not arriving in time.
So I will have to see. The bus card is supposed to arrive within 2 weeks. Here’s to hoping. And hopefully adjusting to the new card won’t be hard. I always worry about new things. But so far so good.

Wait, if Brian can understand Stewie and the family can understand Brian, why doesn’t Brian just tell the family what Stewie is saying?
And why did it take me 30 years to think of that?

Another week down. A quarter of the year is pretty much done. Time sure flies when the world falls apart. Hey now hey now, don’t dream it’s over.
Anyway, a week with ups and downs. The doctor stuff is never fun. But museum trips and handing over art to Helle was great. Healthwise the week started well, getting back on track with things. And then.. well let’s just say the week didn’t end great in that regard. But tomorrow I’m starting again again again! And this time I’ll do great, for more than 4 days. Can’t wait! And hopefully my blood pressure and potassiums are stabilitattering.
No great plans for next week. Wonder if I’ll hear from my doctor about my potassium plans. Or if they’ll just accept my decision to do one pill a day for two weeks. I guess I’ll find out.
I hope you’re all doing well out there. I appreciate having you all as particles in my atom. Or atoms in my particle. The blood in my veins when I’m under pressure. dun-dun-dun-dun pressure.
