Fall must be near

Even though everything is dry and crispy, I think Fall is on the way. The leaves from the elms are turning loose. They are always the first to go.
Bob is watching Matlock, and sewing on buttons. He said he could do that, when I mentioned I had a couple that were needy.
I have changed out computer chairs thinking that may be part of my knee issue. I have to keep a sort of rotation.
I took a nap a little after 8 this morning.
My oatmeal/hazel nut pancakes were quite nice. We are working on eating healthier foods at least part of the time. I try to have oatmeal in my breakfast at least 5 days a week.
We are eating more vegetables, and more fruits as well.
Of course there will be times we do not.
The VA called to tell us what bacteria grew out in the samples for the lab. It is a different one, again. Bob has no symptoms of infection, though and so we are not wanting an antibiotic. The urologist prefers not to have an antibiotic unless he begins to have a fever. This particular bacteria is antibiotic resistant.
We are having yogurt, and elderberry, and other things to help his immune system.
Tomorrow I will call the VA Urology department to set up an appointment for next week.

I'm sorry to hear that Bob has an infection. I hope he gets better soon. How are you feeling? I hope changing chairs helps your knee. Have a good day.

Treatment starts to get a bit tricky if the bacteria is resistant to antibiotics. Hopefully healthier eating will help.

Good for you eating healtier foods. I used to mix thicker instant oatmeal with a couple of eggs and them make patties and fried fhem in hot oil after I had rolled them in breadcrumbs, They were good sort of like breaded oatmeal patties,

I hope that he doesn't require antibiotics and is treated with these yogurt and berries. Good to follow a healthy eating regime. Going off the track once in a while is okay.
