T'Mahk Too - Comments on Pardon me, was I missing? http://andfam.net/kimblog/archives/000894.html Apparently I haven't been blogging. You may have noticed this. I did not. Because of the blogging in my head thing, I guess. Where have I been? Busy with things. I got the bedroom painted and one coat of trim... en-gb Mon, 18 Aug 2008 17:39:38 -0500 Fri, 22 Aug 2008 11:18:42 -0500 http://www.movabletype.org/?v=4.2-en kim@andfam.net 180 By Dale I fixed your CAPTCHA. http://andfam.net/kimblog/archives/000894.html#c316222 316222:894@http://andfam.net/kimblog/ I fixed your CAPTCHA.

]]> Tue, 19 Aug 2008 10:54:53 -0500 By Peggy Gorgeous! Lovely paint, pretty flowers! We're having hubby health issues too. I know it would be improved with proper diet and exercise, but (isn't there ALWAYS a but?) packing for a move and scrimping on every penny necessitates the cheapest and easiest food available. Yuck. I haven't read "The Salt Solution" but hope it's not one of those that advocate getting dietary salt as close to zero as possible. I agree there is a dangerous amount of NaCL in our diet, but zero would be worse because sodium balances potassium, you gotta have both in the right proportion to be healthy. There, my eighteen cents. ;) http://andfam.net/kimblog/archives/000894.html#c316223 316223:894@http://andfam.net/kimblog/ Gorgeous! Lovely paint, pretty flowers! We're having hubby health issues too.

]]> Tue, 19 Aug 2008 21:49:48 -0500 By Frantically Lost Jack DO NOT IGNORE THE HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE ISSUE!!! THAT WAS THE CAUSE OF MY STROKE!!! I tried the denial game too, that's what landed me a $45,000 hospital bill and thousands of stroke victim jokes. Please, if you listen to only ONE THING from me, please listen to my advice about the BP. Grand Lunar, THIS MEANS YOU! The world cannot survive without your deadpan humor and lively wit. Besides, who would keep Daniel in the realm of reality? Get drugs to lower it at first, then once you get your habits changed and your doctor is happy with the change in lifestyle and menu choice, then you can consider weaning yourself off the meds. Trust me, it's a bear to type anything if you have no or limited use of one hand. Ok... I'm off my soapbox now. http://andfam.net/kimblog/archives/000894.html#c316229 316229:894@http://andfam.net/kimblog/ DO NOT IGNORE THE HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE ISSUE!!! THAT WAS THE CAUSE OF MY STROKE!!!

Anyway, I have 4 of them, thanks to the previous owner of our house who planted the garden which I now (attempt to) care for. Each is a different color-- white, light pink, bright pink, deep burgundy. ANYWAY-- love that white hibiscus against the deep blue of the house. http://andfam.net/kimblog/archives/000894.html#c316233 316233:894@http://andfam.net/kimblog/ The blue paint sets off your hibiscus so nicely!!!

The biggest thing that has reduced high blood pressure for me is exercise, which I hate, but it works. Our bodies are so similar, I'm not surprised to hear about your hbp. Let me know how I can help. http://andfam.net/kimblog/archives/000894.html#c316234 316234:894@http://andfam.net/kimblog/ I like the blue paint, rich and attractive.
