Foggy morning, which leads my brain to fog as well....but it could be the BP pills!! My blood pressure this morning as 122/71 the lowest it's been in a month for sure.... at least since I started making my log morning and night. I wonder if this is good or bad? Slept till after 9 a.m. (after taking my 7 a.m. pain pill) and then had breakfast and good flavored coffee, and hit the computer. So been a little slow at getting to this blog. I feel good all and all.
I had a great day shopping with Lottie Virnig yesterday, she has been through cancer, surgery, and chemo this spring, and is now cancer free. But she still has some lingering side effects like me. Neuropathy, and uses a cane to walk...which at times I have too (or at least a walking stick....like at Gooseberry). We also talked a lot about nutritional things along the way. I may start watching the Gluten in my diet too! We first went to get my flu shot, and then onto Cub for somethings that I was craving, to help bring my weight back up again....like I have to do every week after chemo. It's hard to try to gain weight, when all my life I have dieted to be thin. Then onto Old Navy, and got some of 3 gifts I needed to buy for birthdays and a baby shower I have to go to. From there we hit Walgreens for Halloween stuff I had coupons for....but that Walgreens didn't have the stuff for one of the coupons, so we had to hit the one on University and Egret...and that did the trick....or treat!!! By then it was 4 p.m. and I was ready to go home and put things away and rest. Thanks so much to Lottie for making the shopping trip so enjoyable.
I spent most of the evening eating as often as possible, like to wait two hours after eating to take my blood pressure so between 7 and 9 p.m. I don't eat....funny cause I spent that time watching Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives on the Food channel. They actually had a place in NE Mpls on it last night....and it really made me hungry.
Nothing other than church and dinner planned for this afternoon....think I'll work on making some Halloween cards and filling bags etc. Really would like to run back to Michael s if anyone is interested, give me a call.
Other than that it should be a nice relaxing day. Thank you all for all the prayers, I can really feel the blessings God bestows on me. That reminds me, Tommy (my grandson) is getting confirmed next week, and Bill and Kim emailed me a copy of his Faith Statement, which was so beautiful, and said that he really started believing in God and that He answered our prayers, when he was 10 and his grandpa died. He realized that God answered all of our pleas to take away his pain. It made me cry....but I loved it too! God is listening!! Love and Prayers, m
