turpsJames has been binge-watching The Pitt, either two or three episodes a night depending on if it's a work night or not. So, I've been watching too. At the same time I'm downloading and watching the new season. So, what I'm saying is there has been a lot of The Pitt in my life lately.
We've just hit the festival shooting eps in season one, and it was a reminder that while I'm still enjoying season two, so far it's not as strong in the kicked in the gut feeling as the first. Though, maybe I'm just getting used to that emotion in terms of the show. Who knows?
I got a phone call from the doctors yesterday cancelling my appointment for tomorrow. It was a joint one for my B12 injection and routine check, and while waiting for that wasn't an issue, the new suggested date of the 20th of next month really wasn't ideal for my B12 which I need every three months. Thankfully, they were able to split the appointment and fit me in for the injection next week, otherwise I would have been flagging energy wise by next month.
And talking of medical stuff. I finally got my new compressions last week, nearly three months exactly from the day the script was handed in. The magenta pair are very, very pink, and the jean blue pair look pretty much the same shade of my other blue ones. I do wish they were still doing the mango yellow, but, at least I have them now. Though, what's weird is the seam is on the side of the leg and not the back like every other pair I have. I assume it's to stop the feeling of walking on the seam, which doesn't bother me, but I can imagine would some people, but does mean I keep pulling them on wrong, assuming the seam goes to the back.
We did a grip strength test in class yesterday. Rosie emailed everyone their results, and I'm pleased that one hand has the average grip strength for my age while the other is slightly over. And hey, I'll take it.
The Ring Doorbell has suddenly got very specific in its notifications. Before, it would say for example, a person is walking past your door. Now, it gives details, a person is walking past with a trolley, two people are walking on the roadway carrying a bag, and my favourite so far, two people with a beige dog are walking past your door. Though, I was startled by the notification that popped up saying 'someone is trying to open your door' then when I went to check, it ended … with a blue envelope. Turned out, it was someone delivering leaflets.
I was talking to my neighbours the other day, and they mentioned their young daughter always waves and says hello to the camera when they walk past, and after checking she does. One day I'm going to use the speaker and say hello back.

That's cute the little girl is waving to the cameras! I used to do that at work sometimes... LOL. I set one of my kitty cams where it watches the front porch. I only turn it on if I'm expecting a delivery when I'm not at home. I don't like having it on all the time because it pings every time a car drives by. It's annoying when my phone won't stop pinging all day!
