I cut out and hemmed three more "pockets" to hold 500 ml drain/catheter collection bags inside pant legs. The new catheter malfunctioned the first two days in use. Adjustments were made that seem to have corrected the problem. Pants will now have a bag pocket inside each leg to give each collection bag its own place and a more direct route for the catheter tubing.

Then I headed out into the yard to cut the lawns. Drops of rain began to fall soon after I got out there and continued to fall until I was finished using the lawnmower. They never amounted to much so I was able to keep going. I used the edger to do some extra clean up in areas that I usually ignore, cut back all the daisies in the backyard, deadheaded poppies, pulled weeds and cut out some of the young shrubs that are springing up everywhere. Then I clean out the bird baths and pools are refilled them with fresh water.

My hands and joints are very sore tonight. I'd like to think it was worth it but I can't see much improvement out there.
