I just finished taking my blood pressure.  The #'s were spot on what my doctor wanted when he prescribe a new (7th) pill at the 1st of the month.  All of #'s are good and I hope they stay that way or get even better by the time I go back in October for my semi-annual confere- I mean check-up.  Wouldn't it be great if I actually lost some weight by then too.  The new pill is supposed to make me pee more so that makes me lose water, so water weighs something.  Who knows, it is possible.   I do believe that I have also changed some things about the way that I eat too.  Nothing that I planned on.  I just didn't want to eat bread much anymore, and I have started to drink gatorade along with my other juices (natural, of course).  That reminds me that I need to put the last bottle of gatorade in the fridge.  Sheila will get some more when she goes shopping tomorrow.  She'll also need to replenish the candy drawer.  (Robert was here this week!) I wish I had a way of really knowing how fit and healthy I am.  I have my own take on the matter, but no expert (or layman for that matter) has taken time to look and venture an evaluation.  My own take isn't very reliable. There are no similar 65 year old men that I know well enough go compare myself with.  And our children don't help me much that way.  Grand kids ! No way I keep up with them.  So I just go along hoping I am doing okay.  But when it's time it's time!  Had a real interesting thought given to me this morning.  But trying to explain it will lessen it for now, so I'll keep on working on it, but if anyone ever asks I'll try to teach it the best that I can.  It seems to me to be on of my best.
