Then again, I ran into a problem. My phone stopped working. Fine...
Nope. So, I went online and... nope.
After this and that and else, I finally got to tech. At least I knew my sign in. But not my password. Throughout the process, I knew parts and bits, but not all.
Further? The phone was wonky, wasn't allowing them to get through. Wasn't allowing them to reset the account, or phone, or such.
So over, say, three to four hours? The phone got worked, the systems were reset and allowed to talk. And so on.
At the end, or nearly, I ended up on the cellphone service providers site, signed in and such. But the tech had deserted me. Well, after losing connections with them twice already through the process. However, as I was about to contact them again, I realized, possibly, that wasn't necessary.
And... it wasn't. I was able, from that point, to go through my account and set up a new password. To check it, I signed out and back in. It worked. Then I had to set up a different card, for payments. As well, set that up to be automated. Done.
I thought to look about a new phone, shop anyway. Nope. Every time I would get to that section, it would disconnect my account. So that I would have to sign in. The first two times I hoped that signing back in would put me in the phone shopping section. Nope. As well, attempting to shop for phone, again, kicked me back out each time I tried it. Oh well.
Why a new phone? The one I have is an antique, and lower end to start. It works, but... I'd like to try better. As well, since my mother didn't get a phone, and go on my service, I don't have that expense. So... maybe. I'll get in in the next week or two. See about a better phone. Though... maybe not.
But, yes, managing that phone, getting it going, took all afternoon, many calls, several internet chat sessions, and a bit of tech detective work on their and my end. At least I know how to change the sim card on this phone now. Though I think the biggest part of the problem is that I haven't turned the phone off in... months? A year? More? Just charging it at night, leaving it on.
No food today. And I won't be having any tonight. Well, a fatted coffee, but two to three hundred calories doesn't really count. I'll have some tea tonight. As well as white tea and chamomile, I will be adding hibiscus. I had forgotten that was ordered as well, but it showed up yesterday.
I'm holding off on dried lavender and roses. But will enjoy what I have. In time, I'll have mixes, of this, and that, sometimes with tea, sometimes just herbal. If nothing else, it adds variety. And it's... rather much more pleasant than anticipated. I'm... a guy. Guys... don't trust girly things. But... sometimes... they are right. Meh.
Ah, but... the compression is working. It... squeezed more... of everything... out than anticipated. Hoping it keeps on doing it. I had gotten up to 240 pounds, but last night my legs down to my feet had all about doubled in size. I peed three liters out last night, and now guess about today if I am sure I got more than that out... double that? And... there is more to go. I just have to keep compression going. Maybe take a break every few days. And this is using the largest size of those I have. Couldn't fit the smaller or middle size, I don't think. Still, it's a start again.
Oh, and a crazy thing? The doctor called. Heart doc. His first request, from the VA, got shot down. They will offer it, if a different product doesn't work. Which... is similar, if not as fancy. Also a fish oil, medical grade. Okay. I'll go with that, as I said, if that is what he wants. We... can agree. As mentioned, I'd be on this stuff if I had the dollars, as is. I do try to take care. I just can't always keep up, afford it, or such. But he called rather later in the evening. Not a complaint. That's... good. I just hope he manages his health, doesn't overwork himself. So... that's my only thought.
On to some tea. Good even and goodnight.
