Thanks for the encouragement.
This is off topic, but will you guys and gals do me and yourself a favor. If you ever feel a twinge or weight in your chest have it checked out.
I'm asymptomatic when comes to my diabetes or my heart. I didn't have any chest pain, only rarely did I feel any pressure and once an ache down my left arm. One night at work one of the nurses took my blood pressure (215/140) because she said I "looked wrong" and she made me promise to see a doctor. 2 weeks later I'm recovering from surgery, I never felt the severe pain that everyone associates with a heart attack. I waited too long to have myself checked out and because of that every artery around my heart is either blocked or plugged. I'm was told last year that if I take care of myself I might not have to repeat the surgery for 5 or 6 years, which is a moot point since the arrhythmias that started after surgery are getting worse. Probably unrelated is the loss of feeling in the outer part of both hands. It is what it is.
I plan to eventually start on the "bucket list" we all joke about. Number one is to get to Historicon, so if some grey haired guy with a moustache drops 10 P.1000 on the table its me
Just take care of yourselves . . . okay?
I'm dropping off the grid for a while as I'm having to move. Don't know why, but the wife decided she doesn't want to be married after 21 years. It is what it is.
