I've read a little bit about statin drugs, but mostly in passing. There are issues, but there are also issues when every year your doctor tells you your cholesterol is too high. My brother became essentially a vegetarian to get off of the meds.

Today I made a big push on the calendar project. The rest of the years of large-format calendars photographed, and 2 smaller calendars to scan. It has been interesting to stroll down memory lane. Guitar lessons, dentist appointments, graduate school classes, conferences attended, field trips, college visits. Divorce lawyer appointments. The calendars became less busy when my daughter graduated and went to college, and almost empty when my son went away to college. Remaining are dog heartworm medications and cat sitting for a friend. Occasional appointments and volunteer activity.
