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...

Old or New School: Book Edition

(source)
We all know that Fall is the season of cozy and there's no better time to cuddle up with a good book...or screen to enjoy the cooler weather when it comes.

When you read a book, are you going old school with a paper copy or new school with a device like a Kindle?

It should be no surprise I prefer old school.  I like the feel of pages turning, the weight of it in my hand, putting in the bookmark or turning down the corner of the page.  How about you?

  1. Kindle all the way for me. I just love being able to have all my books on a device and the e-ink display is great for reading in my opinion. Downside of course is there is no re-selling books after reading them but they are a little cheaper up front for that reason.

  2. I use both. I prefer a paper book, but I like the convenience, portability, and variety that e-books offer. I have the Kindle and Libby apps on my phone so any book I want is just a few clicks away. My library is great, but has limited options.

  4. I love the flexibility of ebooks. I can borrow from my local library without having to leave the house or worry about open hours. I can put my iPad on a stand so my hands are free to crochet when I read. And I can jump between devices which means any time I’m stuck waiting, I can read my current book on my phone.

  5. I LOVE to read and I use the Kindle app solely because I was running out of room for my book collection. I read a book every few days to a week and I really like not having to find space for them :)

  6. I use both. I read daily on my Kindle, but also like a hand-held book. I just bought some older books on Ebay for a dollar a piece so it was cheaper than the Kindle prices, no doubt because of the age. I do like the 10 inch screen on the Kindle though and that's what I use at work.
