What I'm Reading This Week #20
Howdy do punkin' poos? I hope you had a delightful week of blissful productivity at work (aka hanging on by the frays of your well bitten fingernails whilst saying you need to win the lottery but never actually playing.) A birthday shout out to my grandma. You know, even though she would've been 86, and I know the probability is she would be gone now, it still doesn't stop me wondering how long she would've made it if dementia hadn't reared up. I could really use one of her hugs or her hands cupping my face with that ornery little grin saying I was her first grandbaby. Happy birthday grandma. I hope you and mom have a big euchre game going on tonight. We've been slowly integrating back into walking this week as the Mr could handle. Last night he was able to do two laps without having to stop to stretch so that is good news.

I'm glad they are working and yes we do need to get back to formal workouts soon. I'm relieved that everything is normal on the other tests and so glad to see they work.
ReplyDeleteThat is such awesome news!! Those are amazing numbers after only four months. I'm so happy for you! You'll get off them when you are ready, so in the meantime they are an aide to get you where you want to be.šš
ReplyDeleteGreat news!
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear that they are working for you! Food for thought....my sister in law was telling me the other day that her cholesterol was high. She eventually went on a hormone replacement (You brought up the peri menopause thing...which made me remember) and if I"m not mistaken, she is no longer on the cholesterol med. She said her doctor and her research showed that so much of stuff like that is actually related to peri and full onset of menopause. Not sure....because I haven't done my research...but food for thought!
ReplyDeleteThanks for passing that along! I'm still on the pill so I assume my hormones, while shifting, aren't shifting as much as if I weren't on them? I'm going to go off early next year for a month to get my hormones tested and see where I'm at and she said if I'm not in menopause she'll put me back on them. I will definitely discuss this with her! Thanks!
