I love my Sorel Conquests - comfy to tromp around in, and rated to -40F! Cost me about $100 but I wore them for hours when I went elkhunting with a buddy, and almost wish I'd worn thinner socks!

very windy here yesterday...today was tolerable at 66 degrees and sunny!



Ok...Cardiologist still wasnt happy with my bp...so he upped the dosage...

Atenolol 50 mg to 100 mg...keep monitoring it...if it still dont go down below 140/90 he can up it again...go back in august for follow up echocardiogram.

He said my Aortic valve is only opening about 1/3 what it should...

it's at 1.5 sq centimeters, and should be between 4 and 5sq centimeters.

if I start having dizzy spells and or swelling of the legs I may have to have the valve replaced.


on a side note, my mom 's ahlziemers is getting worse and my father is having a lot of problems with her...I hate to say it but he may have to get her into a nursing home soon.
That sucks Mark. It is tough to watch someone progress through the stages of that.

That stinks about your mom. I know the feelingt...We just put my grandma in a home because of dimensia. They havent come out and said it was ahlziemers yet but Im sure it will get to that point soon.
Dimentia (sp) is a form of Alzhiemers or in the family. I forget which. No pun intended there. Our great aunt that we cared for had Dimentia. They have similar symptoms.

Glad you were able to nip that one in the bud.

I was not the "normal" or "cool" kid that's for sure. I was the quiet, shy, wallflower. Honest!

We watched Swing Vote with Kevin Costner in it tonight. It was actually better than I expected it to be. Especially as a freebie rental

Part of the thing for her, IMO, is that girls mature faster than boys, for the most part, Tell your sister to hang on it won't always be that way.
Oh yes..this fact I know very very well.

I have always gotten along better with older people myself.

Hehe...maybe. I'm sure she would. Actually she tends to like the nerdy boys (as she puts it) because they are smart.

I dont remember Mark. It was either rock or country...definitely nothing that was cool at the time.

Don't live in the past...you can't change that. All you can do is change your future, and thats what you're doing so thats what counts.


Stay tuned. I am going to post a video where Holly is pleading her case for why Dean (my brother in law) should let her borrow his diesel Mercedes. Its pretty entertaining.

They (the earlier song selections) were meant as a joke, but got no response.

Oh well, just like at home, I'm used to it.

Oops Jake, I didn't mean that as though you are not smart. We know you are smart.

I guess I just didn't say that the right way. Her boyfriends so far have been pretty nerdy...is all I meant.
