Later than proposed.

All packages purported to be out arrived.  I doubted one of the packages.  Well, and know that sometimes, lately, packages that are out doesn't mean they will get here.  Worst case, they are delivered to a neighbor, better case, they are taken back to the warehouse... with the truck, in the truck.  But, nope, all arrived.

I ordered two smaller pedestal fans.  Currently, one will be for the front room, to replace the one that burned out.  But another, bigger, one is coming.  That is the true replacement.  I will use one of these fans near another set of windows... pointing in or out... along with the flow of air as it goes without fans.  Better to go with the flow, in this one scenario, than to try to fight it.  When the official replacement arrives, I'll take one of these upstairs.  And use it when it is cooler, at nights.  Letting the other fans and ac have a break.  As well, I have another pair of even bigger, if floor fans, arriving.  Those will be for wherever they seem to work best, probably one upstairs, and one down.  And, used when there is little air.

I did have to put the fans together.  Not really feeling like it.  Pushed, to be up.  But... did it anyway.  Had to run the r.o. again.  I have been drinking a lot of water today... hot, or... hot enough.  Drank nearly an half gallon in this last three hours.  But, no swelling of the feet.  Which adds to suspicions about all that.  I'll refill the reservoir before going up.  The fans are assembled.  Not tried yet, but... I'll get to that too, before going to bed.

A few pair of watershoes/barefoot emulation shoes, in two sizes.  I'll try them on.  If both fit, roughly, I'm golden.  If the 15s, or even 16s, are too small... back they go.  I'm hoping to keep both.

Although, that... might be changing.  My feet were swelling, terribly.  They have been for years.  I just thought it was the way of things.  Extra waterpills sometimes helped, sometimes not.  For a while, or for a day.  Or in a day.  But... this last week, without cream?  They not only went down, became absolutely normal, but have stayed that way.  Now, I don't think it is gout, and I don't think it is inflammatory.  If it was either of those, the waterpills wouldn't do a damned thing.  No, I think cream creates edema.  For whatever reason, it causes me to hold onto water.  Inflammation is a different thing, that isn't moisture causing the swelling, neither would it be for gout.  Well... that's what I think anyway.  In any case, I think I am done with cream.

Still, may have to consider two shoe sizes, in case I run into this, occasionally, from time to time.  If 16s are a bit big, could also save them for when I am, or want to, wear thicker socks.  I'll try them upstairs, as I go on to bed.  Good day, afternoon, and goodnight.
