Good *later* morning, myLot!

Here in California, it's 11:35 a.m., so still morning. I've been texting and off and on the phone a good chunk of the morning. I never did have breakfast, so I'll be having lunch in a while. I unloaded the dishwasher and put the dishes in the sink into the dishwasher afterward. I did this with the help of one of my rolling chairs and the cane. One of the calls I made was to the Health Center, to ask exactly what I can do while my knee s messed up. So many people have been telling me "Do this", "Don't do that", "You don't need this, you just need this to help you walk." I figured I'd better ask an actual doctor what I can and can't do. I don't know when I'll hear back from them, but until then I'll just scoot around the apartment in one of my desk chairs and do the exercises I was given to do. I texted my brother about the rent money, and at first asked for a certain amount, and then with all the other stuff I forgot I'd be getting money from the rent of the house, so I texted him back and said I'd need $200 less than I'd originally asked for. I made a couple of texts and calls about renting/borrowing a wheelchair, since one thing I do know is that I'm supposed to stay off my knee as much as possible. One person I called, when I found out from another person that we have a wheelchair at the church, was the one who said, "You don't need a wheelchair, you just need your cane." then later she texted me back when her husband told her I could use the wheelchair. My thought is, If I'm supposed to stay off my knee, the cane isn't really going to help me do it. I had the brace with the icepack in it on my knee, but after about 20 minutes I was feeling the ice pack lose it's "cold", so I took the ice pack out and now I'm wearing the brace by itself. This post is getting a bit long, I guess, so I'll close and talk about other things in other posts.
