Day 24 in hospital. I want to be able to walk but the physiotherapist never seems to show up to help me. Today one said she’d come back in 30 minutes when I was less stressed. I never saw her again. There’s a possibility I’ll be moved to a rehab hospital not far away but that depends on them having a vacancy.

They did come out but not until 8:30 pm when a generous nurse found time near the end of her shift.

Allegedly the sutures are coming out today.

Still in hospital, the various attempts to clear the arthritic knee of inflammation and bacterial infection are working but quite slowly. I’m going to try walking with support from a non-wheeled walking frame tomorrow as the pain is reducing.
On a different subject yesterday I bought a $42 battery razor from Amazon, directing the purchase to a friend’s address. It shipped today and is expected to arrive tomorrow. Assuming it does my friend will drop it off on Friday around noon.
The hospital’s idea of a razor is a Bic single blade disposable thing that gouges more than it shaves. Hideous thing.
The attachment shows why I need a shaver.

This is an older hospital building with poor if any air conditioning. The next three days are expected to average 38°C so I asked s friend to drop off a box fan, which he did this morning. I have it perched stop my rollator walker. It’s doing a fine job. Rather than oscillating, it has a rotating louvre to distribute the air in a wider zone.

The M3 MacBook Airs will technically support two external displays but only while in clamshell mode with the lid closed.

With the arrival of M3 processors in the MacBook Air range, I’ve decided to get one. I’ve chosen the 15-in version with 512 GB storage and 16 GB memory.
