On the Road Again

Such a bright, gorgeous day.  We made it to 51 degrees.


A busy morning.  Took a shower, went to the bank and Wegmans, then at 10:45 we headed into Rochester so I could have a BP monitor put on (as ordered by my cardiologist).
If you have never had this done....what a pain in the butt.  This thing is hanging around my neck to gather information....
and I have a cuff on my arm.
It was put on at 11:30am and will come off at 11:30am tomorrow.  24 hours squeezing the crap out of my arm.  Every half hour during the day and every hour at night!  Can't stand it and don't think the information gathered is valid.  Won't do it again.  I am the queen of white coat syndrome so all this does is raise my blood pressure.  Let's see what happens.  Trying to stay cool.
Home by 12:30 and spent the afternoon in front of the fire with my buddies.
Decided a simple supper was in order and made Naan bread pizzas.




Sid and Little Wonder found some good light in the living room after dinner.




Night all.

PS
Sandra....enjoyed catching up with you this afternoon!

Stay cool, keep calm if you can.The worst part is when the cuff inflates way past where it starts to register, then gives you a scare when is starts all over again. I have had that SO many times in hospital.Just one more day then it's all done.

It truly makes my day, Lori! That blood pressure torture machine will be coming off soon. No more of this for you.
