Day 3744

 I woke up at 76:30, played games, and then got up for pet stuff and breakfast.  After a little surfing it was time to go to the doctor.

I got to see him after a 45+ minute wait.  Overall he was happy with the blood work except he wants me to drink more water.  I'm going to have to work on that.  He says tmy A1C is down, that's good.  However that means he can't up the dose on the Mounjaro.  The insurance company won't let him.  Crap.  I think that means that I"m just going to get hungrier and hungrier.  Also I've only lost 16 lbs.  I'm going to have to exercise more.  Finally he said he's going to reduce my BP med.

I talked to him about my forgetting words.  He says with my family history it's likely I'll get dementia.  He's prescribing a drug that will delay, but not stop, it. 

We took Abby to Circle C when I was done.  It was hot.  She ran a fair amount and drank a lot of water.  Then we went to Torchy's for lunch followed by HEB for milk and bread.

I really didn't have anything to do when we got home.  I decided to replace the diff gears in the TRX4M.  I've had them for a long time.  Unfortunately I ordered a balanced set rather than a higher front speed.  I put them in anyway.  The front was a pain in the ass.  I cemented my decision not to do the SCX30.  All those tiny screws would make it very difficult.

I almost stripped a tiny screw while I was doing the replacement.  I went out to the garage and collected every tiny screw I had in the parts bin.  None of them fit.  I sorted them all and put them in bags so next time I can determine if I have the right one.

By the time I finished that it was time to feed the pets.  

Ellen fixed scrambled eggs and ham with hash browns.  I really like that.  Afterwards I took Abby out and did another 2 miles of walking.  When I came back inside I watched videos for the rest of the evening.
