But first, the weather. Cool at night, warm during the day, welcome to Fall in San Diego where it was 90 but we didn't need to turn the AC on, just the fans.
Also got results back from poo test and once again that enzyme is still through the roof so waiting to see what the doctor says.
So last night with a preface, Jon has some 'bone conduction' earphones and they're paired with his phone. For whatever reason when he comes in the bedroom he hears music playing from my computer. I do not have volume on in SL, never have because it's annoying and I have to concentrate on typing. Anyway, technically he shouldn't be hearing anything from other machines but he did. Last time it happened I just found the bluetooth list and then disconnected them. Well either the name got changed or something because the earphones were not on the list. So how and what was he hearing? Laptop was also on and I had SL there but bluetooth was disconnected. It's really baffling and me, not being the smartest tech person in the world decided to turn off the bluetooth, like you do with wifi. Bad move.
Keyboard and mouse are both bluetooth. We have no wired components in the apartment that are compatible. I realized my grievous error when I tried to do something with the mouse. At lest the music stopped for Jon, but now I had no way of turning the bluetooth back on the imac.
Working with the macbook, looking up fixes (AI answers were SO stupid!), tried to do mirroring but it only showed the macbook desktop on the imac. I remembered there was a way of making my cursor from the macbook crossover to the imac but couldn't figure that out. An hour later, messaging my ever patient and wonderful friend CJ and then finding an answer that actually worked, got the keyboard working and used 'Bluetooth File Exchange' from there and voila!
Jon felt so bad, he kept apologizing and I told him I was the one that made the choice. Yes and I even shut it down and restarted it which did nothing (see previous note of not being as tech savvy). So that was the excitement last night, me panicking then calming down, being infinitely patient whenever Jon would ask about something and I would explain how that won't work. Explained how the mirroring works and it was basically useless at that point.
As for medical stuff, only just got the results from the poop test, the bone scan showed early osteoporosis (called osteopenia) which means I need to walk more and take calcium probably. Still slogging through all the Medicare choices but I think I narrowed it down to a plan that will work the best for us. Told him I'd go over it with him and explain pros and cons and all that. There's only one company that carries our provider and that's United Health Care. I've never used them before but they were in the news last year for some reason but ignored it because we weren't using them. So we'll have that dialed in before the end of the month and crossing fingers the transition goes smoothly. Not going into details, too boring and not relevant.
Still knitting, thumb still hurts, cooking is going better today since I fixed seasoned shrimp for tacos or going on rice. I made a 'faux' chipotle mayo that is delicious! New batch of salsa that, according to Jon, slapped him three times and poked his eyes out (magic of using a whole fresh jalapeño). Needed cilantro so went to the store, picked that out, got a bag of 'tri color' shredded cabbage and a few other things that came to less than $20. Found a new brand of smoked sausage in a pack of 10 rather than 40 and hope to make some of the 'Ronto Wraps' on the weekend as well, cabbage, check, ingredients for White Sauce, check, flour tortillas, check.... will probably cook the last pork roast in the crock pot and see if I can slice some of that for the wraps too. Yummilicious!
Not as exhausted as I was last week from the frequent toilet runs, but still annoying. 'Chronic condition' is what I have now that needs regular maintenance etc, etc.
Goodnight, take care and see you when I see you.
