Did Statins Help?
Pardon if this is riddled with typos but it's 2:30am. I got my lipid blood test results back yesterday. I'm going to assume heading into perimenopause years shot my numbers up because nothing has changed food wise (though stress wise it's been astronomical the past few years which apparently contributes as well). A reminder, I was at 264 at the beginning of December and my shuck and jive speech to get my shit together didn't land well with her. After a talk with my bestie who is on them convinced me (us) with her experience, I relented and agreed to go on them. After almost 4 months on a 10mg dose (the lowest dose available), I'm at 184. So, I guess they work. 😂 I will also say this is with zero dietary changes and a pretty scattered workout schedule the past two months. I hope in time when all of the projects are done and we are finally able to focus on ourselves that I can eventually go off of them with hard work. I'm pleased with...
You really got some good deals at that last place. Tags popped successfully! I love that little note from the grandkid. I could have easily written the same thing when I was a kid too. Everyone here should know the lady didn't pass away. She just moved to a nursing home and had to declutter. That makes me feel better about it.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I don't think any of the sales we hit up were from the dearly departed so that's good. I always feel weird about that and I always hear someone ask. I love the card from the grandkid too. Funny, I thought of your mom making you do thank you cards as a kid to your grandparents when I saw it. It's a lost art but one I still heavily support.
DeleteOh that reminded me of my grandpa's (mom's dad) last letter to me..my handwriting resembles his...and his is more spidery and Loved his sweet letter to me..when he passed, I treasured that letter more...I was 10 when he passed and my regret was he never got to play monopoly with me again as he promised he would in the letter...
ReplyDeletehad a traditional house warming party on Sunday so up early and wore a saree and went to it...was their official photographer:)
Thanks to the Mr. for clarifying about the lady's status. That makes me feel better. Still sad that she had to get rid of her 'stuff.' I dread that day. I save too much stuff that has meaning only to me. Sometimes I wonder what my kids will do when they go through my stuff after I'm gone. I'm sure it will all get thrown out, but I'm going to let them do it, if possible. It would be too hard for me to throw away all those wonderful cards, letters, pictures, etc.!
ReplyDeleteOMG... I think that thank you card was written by my ex! The hand writting and name are identical to his. I still have the letters he wrote me while we were dating. Somethings we seem to keep forever.
ReplyDeleteI am very sentimental. I watched this Lifetime movie yesterday called Mother and Child and I bawled like a baby.
ReplyDeleteDidn't do much this weekend, unfortunately that means making up for it today.
ReplyDeleteI'm sentimental about some stuff. The card would have made me happy/sad too.
I love stuff like that. When we look in antique shops I go for the post cards, never have bought any, but love reading the notes penned for loved ones. And yes they bring tears to thine eye.
ReplyDeleteI am nursing a poor knee, but spent the weekend doing genealogy research on my computer, which I love! I am a big dork over old cards...I have a hard time getting rid of them they're always so sentimental! Glad you had a good weekend.
ReplyDeleteAw, so sweet. :) I'm not sentimental at all and even I am feeling a little verklempt. I can't wait to see what fun things you're going to do with those lights!
