Apr. 28th, 2015 09:51 amI don't think wearing the brace yesterday did me any harm. It wasn't as comfortable for my foot as the boot but was more comfortable for the rest of my leg than the boot is. I don't know.
I made two phone calls yesterday that I'd been putting off. I called Kroger to ask them to order me a tube of Gel-Kam (fluoride gel for my teeth, helps with sensitivity problems). I also called our dentist to see about changing Cordelia's dental appointment. That was set for the 12th which is also the day when I see the orthopedics people again. I didn't want to do both on the same day. The dentist is actually able to get us in on the 14th at the same time which is really nice. I was afraid we'd end up waiting for at least a month or have to come in earlier in the day (with a 3:30 appointment, Cordelia still misses half an hour of school, but I figure that's better than missing three hours which is what an earlier appointment would likely require). A Thursday afternoon appointment isn't ideal because it means not being here when the cleaning lady comes, but we've done that before. She can lock up when she leaves if Scott's not home yet, and I will be home when she arrives.
Scott worked late last night. I wimped out on dinner and sent Cordelia to Subway. She forgot to have them put the ranch on my chicken bacon ranch sub, and I forgot to tell her that I wanted spinach, so she only got me lettuce. She ate half of her sandwich last night and half for breakfast this morning. I was half hoping she'd save that half for dinner tonight. Scott's supposed to be working late again. Oh, well. We do have enough leftovers for one meal.
metanews seems to expand to fill all my available time. I'm not sure what to do about that. I'd like to do other things than that and my general wandering around the internet. I just can't seem to focus. I do think I'm finding more links on our LJ reading list than the other link finder gets from the DW reading list, so I'm not at all sure why we stopped checking LJ. The rationale, as I recall, was that we weren't getting more than a link or two a week, but I'm finding at least a dozen a week there, possibly more. Have things changed or am I more thorough than whoever was linking before? Most of the links I get are to things off LJ, so maybe whoever did it before was ignoring those?
Scott did discover why he was having so much trouble getting his laptop to back up-- The program was trying to back up both of his hard drives, and one of them, the one he uses for photo and video storage, has over a terabyte of data. Time Capsule was simply choking on the volume. He did a full back up of both hard drives. I think, from here on out, he's going to have his working hard drive back up automatically and only back up the storage drive when he makes changes.
I know there were other things I meant to write about, but I can't for the life of me think what they are. I guess I'll do a supplementary post later today if I remember.
