And Then................

Spent 3 hours yesterday being examined, poked, prodded, imaged, stretched, diagnosed and treated. I have migraines. big woop. So does half the planet. Soooo, luckily nothing more than that for now. We'll do another MRI in 6 months just to be sure there's nothing deeply lurking. And I've got some good drugs should I need them next time, that way I won't end up in the hospital thinking I'm having some neurological attack....~ shudder ~

Blood work came out great, blood pressure, heart rate...all the normal stuff, all good. Kidney counts are all good, even liver function is looking great. SHOCKER! Apparently, I'm a pretty healthy lady...except I did get the "you could probably loose 20 lbs, just to be safe" speech. My doc rocks, so I don't take it personal. She's right, I'd rather NOT put my body under more stress than is necessary. Sooo, I promised her I would do so before my next visit. That's doable.

She was shocked at my cholesterol, simply because I am a little overweight....I have the cholesterol counts of a women half my size. I was feeling pretty pleased with myself about that....I just grinned at her. She said "You must eat a lot of veggies!" I said, "Yeah, something like that." I did reminder her though that my pudgealicious tummy is do more to the initial weight gain from last year when I moved into the house, quite smoking and a myriad of other personal dramas occurred...I just haven't really been able to get it off since. Because I like pasta, bread, rice and potatoes (to excess, hmmmm carb-sugar, yummmm) and olive oil, it's not going any where until I decide to make it so. Make It So #1!

har. Little Star Trek humor for you there. durh.

I am wicked tired today, I usually am by Thursday nights and then Friday rolls around and I'm back on the bandwagon for the weekend. This weekend promises to be busy.

So all in all, I'm healthy happy and feeling good about many things. I always have too much to do, so I've decided to stop complaining and procrastinating about it and just move forward. Things don't get done just thinking about them right?

AND BY THE WAY..............

Just in case no one has noticed what the Mad Cowboy is up to today....

Don't forget to read the comments...

Certainly he won't go down without a fight, that would be rolling over to easily at this point. I'm sure we'll go several more rounds before progress is made, probably not until he's out of office. But what gets me worked up is his openly belligerent attitude. He personifies the very charasticists the world nation as a whole has for despising us. blech.
