On the mend...

Maybe I was just too tired last night to blog, and still not feeling great, or maybe I was too ramped up for the big Superbowl Game on TV last night... not sure which or maybe a bit of both. It turned into a great game which was good to see, and sure nice to see New Orleans get to host the Superbowl...they needed it!

We are back to enjoying great weather here again in Florida... lots of sun, mid 70's, simply perfect! Today we continued our recovery from our colds/flu or whatever it is that has us down.

To fill in part of my recovery time I have been tied up in a good book I recently downloaded off of iTunes and a have been reading it on the iPad. Shawn and Jenn gave us a nice iTunes gift card, so I though, why not!

The book is called "Heart Health for Canadians".

 

Dr. Beth Abramson has done a great job putting this book toghether. I am about 3/4 through it now, but have been really enjoying it. (It sells on iTunes for $14.95. It was available at our library online, but a big line up!)

Many of you will know that back about 7 years ago I needed Triple Heart By-Pass Surgery. When that happens to you, it hits like a ton of bricks, as it just came out of the blue for me. So Judy and I were not really that educated on heart issues, and coronary heart disease. We did a lot of research at the time on the internet, trying to find out information. This book is an ideal way to educate yourself in regard to heart issues.

It describes symptons of all kinds of heart problems, talks about the test that Dr.'s use to discover what is wrong with your heart, and all kinds of information on treatments.

Very well written, and easy for the normal person to understand! If you are looking for this kind of information, consider this book.

Till tomorrow...

Early Spring on the way...

How do I know???

Well, Wiarton Willy of course. No shadow, so bring on the early spring!

 

And this sums up the rest of my day...

Till tomorrow...

All that nice weather... and I'm under it!

Well, today involved a whole lot of sitting on the couch kind of like a big lump. The cold I picked up over the last couple days did me in, and has a big hold on Judy as well.

I watched a bit of TV today, and got caught up on the news a bit, and noticed a big snow storm hitting southern Ontario. There was a 50 car pile up on Highway 401 right at Woodstock this afternoon, and the 401 is still closed! What a mess...they just keep smashing into each other...

Kristina turned out to be my eyes and ears today for the blog, and sent me a couple photos from Woodstock area...

Yes, that is Gwenny tucked inside that snow suit, with Kristina reporting she loves to go outside in the snow.

Although I am not too sure about Chris above, who ended up with the business end of that shovel. Gotta be able to get the cars in and out!

Enjoy the snow you guys!

Till tomorrow...
