Cousin #2 stayed longer yesterday and was able to do a couple of things for me. I haven't heard from cousin #3. I guess I can't count on her anymore.
There were 2 winners in Ohio for $1 million for the PowerBall drawing. If I understood cousin #2 correctly, she didn't buy the tickets. Sigh.
I ordered a book from Amazon about kidney disease -- what to eat and what not to eat, what to do and what not to do. That should be helpful.
Breakfast - PB&J sandwich
Lunch - Meals on Wheels - Salisbury steak, mashed potatoes, peas, roll, pears
Dessert/Snack - Banana chocolate chunk muffin
Dinner - Chicken/Muenster sandwich, peaches
What did you eat yesterday?

I'm sorry you can't depend on the cousins... Some people are just like that.
I'm glad you'll be reading up on the kidney disease and hope the book helps you manage it.
I had a sausage, egg and cheese croissant for breakfast, no lunch and Pretty made chicken, mashed potatoes and biscuits for supper last night. I ate some Tootsie Rolls for dessert.

@DaddyEvil You're very welcome. I would have liked for more to get done this week; but it is what it is for now.

@LindaOHio I am assuming by "beanie weenie" you mean hot dogs and beans? I used to make that all the time, and it was always good eats. I haven't done it in a while and I might need to add that to my list. If I do, this time I'd use kielbasa.

Sorry about that unreliable cousin. At least a call to let you know would be good. I hope that the book comes with some good and easily manageable food tips to help you . Food at times is more effective than any medication. Take care.

I’m sorry about these unreliable cousins. And, I’m glad you’re reading up about your condition so you can keep it under control. I have an ultrasound on my liver Thursday, but I don’t know why. I already know I have a liver disease (I had a biopsy at 23). I think it’s a waste.
Yesterday, I had fruit, half a bread bowl, a bowl of cream of chicken wild rice soup, and a “bouquet” of broccoli.

I'm sorry about the liver disease. They may be doing the ultrasound to find out how far it's progressed. That's what they did with my kidneys.
I love broccoli.....raw or cooked.

@LindaOHio I feel good about it because they said my liver enzymes were slightly elevated. Usually, they’re off the charts!

It sounds like yesterday had a mix of ups and downs for you. That’s nice that cousin #2 was able to help out though! As for cousin #3, it can be a bit disappointing when you don’t hear from someone you rely on. Hopefully, she'll come through soon. And oh, what a missed opportunity with the Powerball tickets! It's always a little bittersweet to think "what if," especially with such a big prize.
The book you ordered on kidney disease sounds like a great step toward understanding what to do for better health. It’s always empowering to have that kind of knowledge.

We didn't win on hubbies tickets. I don't check mine until next Thursday as I always buy for 2 weeks

Cousin #2 never bought the tickets so we aren't the million dollar winners.

I hope the book helps and gives you more insight.
Thankfully there's a wealth of information available for us these days so we can understand what's going on when we get a diagnosis

@LindaOHio does Meals on Wheels offer any meals for specific dietary needs or is it that everyone gets the same stuff?

It's going to be hard to change my diet without someone to help me; but I will do what I can.

Sorry she didn't buy the tickets for that.
Hopefully the book helps... if it was a blood sugar issue I could help with that, but can't here.
