PER DOC, AM GOING TO LIVE IN SPITE OF MYSELF!

Dear old doc says I am in good shape for the shape I am in!  I had lost 8 lbs and he was very pleased with that.  I asked if I was in the throws of beginning dementia, and he says no.  Those that ask, usually aren't.  It is ones that don't ask he worries about!  I told him I couldn't remember names, and he said that was ok....I could do what most elderly people do....call the roll.

I love my primary care physician.  He spends any amount of time I want, listening to me, talking about any concerns I have.  These type doctors are few and far behind these days.


I know it isn't fall quite yet, but we are sliding into it...was 53 this morning.  Chattanooga is surrounded by mountains - Lookout, Signal, Missionary Ridge, and more.  One of my daughters lives on Signal and she shared the picture below with me.  It is honestly and truly a road that goes up that mountain called "The W" road.  It isn't the main road up, but lots of people do still use it.  Look at the picture sideways and you can even see the "W".



In those turns, people have to stop and let the one that got there first, continue and then they can go.



I received an email from a friend with Cool Facts About the Human Body.  There are several, so will just share one a day.


Scientists say the higher your I.Q. the more you dream.




I hope you can make this work for you.  I have tried and tried and still haven't conquered it.

  1. Glad to hear you got a great report from the doctor! The picture your daughter sent is beautiful! Did she take this picture from the side of the road? I can't wait for the fall colors to start coming out here. There are hints of it but I'm still waiting for the big burst to hit us!
