I not only drove him to school, I picked him up at noon with a requested Taco Bell quesadilla for him and a 2 point meatless Soft Taco Supreme for me with root beers, ate them under a shady tree, then went for a drive in which he directed me where to turn and what he wanted to see and look at. It's something we used to do at least once per week. This is the first time I've been able to in almost a year. Then we came home, I rested a bit while he yakked at me. Then we played with watering the perennials and using the hose like the spray-ghost-trappers from Ghost Busters while he knocked ghosts out of the trees. Then I made it rain, holding the hose up so the water would arc, and he ran under it enough times to get soaked on a hot day. What fun! But, that's not all, then we finished up with teeny, tiny, baby kid's sized Wendy's Chocolate Frosties, went to get his mom from work and I took them home and I still wasn't tired, at 430p.

This evening I realised I forgot all of my meds this morning. I think some of my energy is because my BP didn't get depressed. Going to have to talk to my docs. The other morning when I drove myself to the coumadin clinic, they tested my BP and it was 86/55...too low for much energy and after I'd taken my meds a couple of hours earlier. Definitely going to talk with the docs. Could be I am just better all round, which it feels like. I just find it interesting about the meds.

I've also been doing some leg stretches throughout the day.

Marigold, your new digs sound and look wonderful...great neighbourhood boost and I like the boss man!
