Risk Assessment

We work out three times weekly but still can not seem to lose weight. I guess we will have to start writing down everything we eat in order to take off the pounds. Once the weather improves, we will start biking to the health club. That should help. Bellinhealth has a heart attack risk assessment program for only $40.00. We plan to schedule appointments to identify and control certain risk factors for cardiovascular disease.
I went to the doctor today because I had an eye problem, it was all red due to broken blood vessels. It is fine now but scared me half to death. Sorry kids, I'm still kicking, you'll have to wait for your inheritance. The doctor reassured me that the condition had nothing to do with high blood pressure but my blood pressure is too high, 132/80. I was sure I was in trouble because once the blood started to disappear, the white of my eye turned brownish-yellow. Yuck, scary and gruesome. Now, if I could control that look for Halloween..........


The rainy season has begun, it has rained most of the night and all day so far. Really cold and dreary but we need the rain..
This is nothing compared to the people who live by the Red River. Our hearts go out to them with their flooding problems.




I volunteered to assist with a home remodel/landscaping today. We have an ex Marine who has severe disabilities due to three experiences in the Persian Gulf, Somalia, and Iraq. Many area businesses are donating services, products, and labor for his home remodel. He is only 36 and has purchased a large older home that he is now unable to remodel. I figure I can do pick up duty, painting, donate many of my perennials,. whatever they need........ There must be something a little old lady can do, maybe I could babysit their kids so they could enjoy an evening out.
