Dan,

I've had no desire to watch TV...and am usually busy with ham radio
traffic nets in the evening.

Well, I'm now being removed from home health care, because I'm not
"homebound" (stuck at home without transportation). But, while I could
get groceries and medications delivered if I sold the car, I would have
no way to get to doctors appointments, etc. All my friends work and have
family during the week, and after what happened to me with Uber, I'm
afraid to try Lyft.
I checked the price of low sodium foods, and I can't afford them. The
government took away my SSI nearly 16 years ago, because they said that
between my wife and I, that $1500 a month was too much money...don't get
me started on that. I get less than that now, and apparently they feel
that's still too much money...it's not worth getting food stamps or other
assistance. They'd rather give benefits to illegal aliens for their votes,
instead of folks who truly need it.
I can NOT stand in one spot for more than 15 seconds without my legs
shaking, and my risking falling. I can NOT see the progress of things
cooking on the stove if I'm seated, and surely can't stir things if I
am seated. I am a fall risk, and if I go down, I won't be able to call
for help...and will just die on the floor.
Frankly, I'm tempted to just sell the car, disconnect the internet, the
BBS, and cellphone...and cut myself off from the outside world.
Daryl
