Well Monday was a no pickle ball day as I had my health check up with my new doctor. All of my blood work was good except the total cholesterol was 217 and he wanted to put me on a pill because my LDL was elevated. I made him a promise to lose 10 pound by November which he thinks caused this to occur as I'm 10 to 15 pounds over my normal weight which has been around 180. I need to stay away from fried foods and beef which I have been doing more plus desserts and sweets. He was amazed I had recovered from the covid pneumonia as well as the blood clots so quickly. I still have to stay on the Eliquis which is a blood thinner probably for the rest of my life, oh well.
I headed to Sam's to fill up at 4.08 a gallon and to get salt for the softner and drinks for the grand's when they come to mow my yards this summer. I got back around lunch time and we ate just a salad. We both need to lose a few pounds and I'm determine to get the cholesterol down below 200 and increase my HDL by the time we get back to Florida in November. It was another hot humid day here and I'm ready for some cool morning and fresh air which is happening at the cabin.
I took a nice long several miles bike ride to get some exercise around 3'ish when we started to get a breeze and then came back and hand watered the gardens. The tomato's are still producing with lots of green ones which I will take to the mountains. I have lots of small marigold seedlings coming up in the garden as well as several volunteer tomato's seedlings. We cleaned up the leftover deer burgers and a hot dog for supper which were awesome. I'm hoping neighbor Gerald will clean out his last year ground deer from his freezer when we get there as its superb in taste and so much better for you than beef.
Well that was about it for the day as we settled into the Fox channel with Jesse and Tucker. The Left is going bananas with the thought of the abortions rights heading back to the states where the folks will decide if this is right for them. The dem's are so extreme in their marxist thinking to destroy this nation and our culture, LATER
No pics until we can figure out why when Nancy got a new phone we can no longer transfer them to my blog.
