Just reading an update on Susan E’s mother who wound up in the hospital with some serious stuff going on has made me think about health related things. I had a heart attack 3 1/2 years ago. Thanks to modern technology and very clear signs that is was a heart attack (and Steven) I got in and out of the hospital amazingly fast. I’ve been on various meds since then though and feel like I’ve been in a multi year nap. Luckily, I’ve been able to cut back on the meds, and now I feel like I am finally waking up…kind of like Gray Kitty here after one of her naps!
So where is all this going? I am just reminded this morning that health, good health, is kind of a subtle tricky thing. When you feel well, it is really easy to take it for granted… cut corners and try to get by with less than healthy eating and exercise habits, but eventually it can catch up with you, in a sudden and unexpected way. So everyone get out there and take a walk today, eat a nice healthy salad, and take good care of yourself!

I threw in an extra ‘really’ there in case you needed it.
