Going Strong

I was pleased to see that the planter at the front door is still doing well and has filled out even more now.  

Second visit to the hospital this afternoon and such a relief to get rid of the dratted BP monitor,  Long wait to see the doctor (alas not a Professor, but delightful all the same), but worth it in the end to discover my BP results were the best they've been for ages and only a very little outside the acceptable range.  

IF I can take myself in hand and lose some weight (the suggestion was just a steady 1 lb per week, which doesn't sound too awful) and take some gentle aerobic exercise (walking, swimming), then there should be no need to change or increase my meds.  I have been inspired to try harder as I have to go back in 6 months for a further check!

Still struggling to balance specs on my nose, though I think the pain is easing a bit as no painkillers taken today, so hope to be catch up soon.  Have a lovely weekend.
