Brrr!

Winter has arrived. It is darn cold; my least favorite part of the year. 

Just a reminder: if I repeat myself, it is because I am old! And I don't go back and read the blog posts to see if I already talked about something. Disclaimer!

I'm working on getting my blood pressure within an acceptable range. No salt. I cut it out quite a while ago but I still want it on my food. I just don't go there. Now I take a water pill to help in that department, too. I may as well put a TV tray in front of the toilet with my laptop on it! It's ridiculous, really. My siblings and I have the "Burnett Bladder" already, and now this? No fun. I definitely can't go anywhere in the mornings and even early afternoon. Which means if I have an appointment, I can't take the pill at all.  

We had a great lunch and visit with Audi yesterday. We went to Sterlings, one of our favorite restaurants. Not a chain, but they had three locations in the Tri-Cities. We were there about 3 hours and they didn't kick us out. We had a lot of catching up to do! So glad she is living back here once again!

Vic continues to do his cardiac rehab twice a week and thinks it really is helping his energy levels and stamina. Good for him!

Derek and Vickie are getting together a painting class for family members. Painting as in portraits, not walls. We think it will be fun with all family members! Lots of laughter, I'm guessing. I vow not to complain like I have done in the past. I know I'm not a good artist for that kind of creativity, but I'll go just for the fun of it. 

Have a great weekend. I'll be in my long johns and have 2 or 3 throws wrapped around myself, LOL!
