Good Morning everyone. Temperatures in the low 40F's and raining early AM; present conditions unchanged. Maybe some brief periods of sun later today; maybe some snow showers embedded in the rain late tonight tomorrow early AM. I am looking forward to the Summer-like warmth starting midweek.
We got our first bear visitor last night. It tipped a seed containing ash can and stole ~40#'s of sunflower seed w/o making a sound and disappeared leaving behind in its wake a ripped open and empty suet cage, one small munched up/destroyed sunflower seed cage, and one destroyed 1/4" metal feeder pole snapped in half at the ferrel. It returned later, this time Brogen was up and ready for "action"= 3 walks of the lower perimeter already today. The remaining feeders (minus sunflower seed) are back up and in action. Bird feeders and remaining birdseed will be housed indoors until I run out of seed and suet.
Nothing much planned for today.
I like my early morning coffee and the process of grinding the beans and brewing it. I am down to ~2 cups/day in the AM; no caffeine past noon. I have not yet stopped the martini's yet...... That day is coming.
I have no real cardiac challenges other than managed HBP and borderline high cholesterol levels. My lungs are in good shape considering their history. My challenges are now organ and tissue inflammation. Since I started this new way of eating I have been taking my blood sugars again. I noticed that I was running "high" with the AM's baselining at ~140. I have since tweaked my insulins and am now reading ~100 again.
I am happy to read about all of the heart attack survivals here. It's too bad that many individuals need a "life changing event" to make the necessary changes that may have prevented the "event" in the first place. BTDT
Ted- I can not afford an RC mower like the ones posted. Actually I am benefitting from all the walking. It reads like your MCL is healing really well. That's good news. Your ongoing drought is not.
Randy- It reads like your lung functions are improving and that you are getting at least some energy back. Are you still on O2?
My + thoughts, wishes, and prayers for all especially the ailing wives and those mending.
Have a good one everyone.
