I didn't go bowling today, my legs have been giving me a lot of problem the last few days. Pity really because next week we can't go as a family takes over the whole place for Family Day. A Canadian holiday.
However, I did phone the vascular surgeon because my legs were so bad and I now have an appointment for an ultrasound and to see the surgeon after. If they arrange surgery, it is a day surgery so won't cause me a lot of problems with Matt, I hope. Talking of whom, I finally got to speak to the nurse at the doctor's office and they can find nothing wrong on his ultrasound either. Maybe we should go in and talk to the doctor and see what she says.
My cardiologist was worried about my potassium levels but the nurse told me that with a previous blood test, my potassium levels are right in the middle. I didn't think there was any problem but I do have difficulties with cramps when I am on a diuretic. My favourite phrase "Old Age Ain't for Sissies".
I just watched Ad Astra with Brad Pitt, Tommy Lee Jones and Donald Sutherland. I had a little trouble understanding the words, but I thoroughly enjoyed the film. Space exploration has always fascinated me so this was right up my street. The movie was based on a time fairly far into the future with bases on moon and Mars. Something I am always sad that I will never see.
Playing with my new phone, I ended up with music from Star Wars, the Bar Scene. It's rather fun. However, I will continue to check out other ringtones I might use.
My email programme is right up the shoot again. Luckily I can go on the Rogers site and read there, but it is something of a nuisance to say the least. This means I am stuck as far as recipes are concerned, however, I found this one in my recipe programme. I like the sound of it with one exception, egg substitute? What's wrong with eggs?
Spicy Texas Breakfast Casserole
1 lb Medium Egg Noodles
3/4 lb mild sausage
1 small onion, chopped
1 small red bell pepper, chopped
1 16oz. can diced tomatoes, drained
1/4 cup egg substitute, slightly beaten

picante sauce
1. Cook pasta according to package directions.
2. While pasta is cooking, saute sausage, onion, and bell pepper in a skillet. Drain sausage mixture.

4. Bake in preheated 350 degree oven for 20 minutes or until cheese is melted. Serve topped with picante sauce.
