Health Is Not Simply The Absence of Sickness

The title of this post is a quote from Hannah Green. She is a writer I don't know, but I liked the quote.

Earlier I had mentioned a trip to the doctor. Had the tests and physical, and the news wasn't too bad. Had a bit of a high blood sugar reading and low good cholesterol. The good news is, since being on meds, the blood pressure is back to normal. To deal with the other stuff I have given up soda (mostly) and am eating a lot better. Also taking fish oil pills.

Now all that's left is to quit smoking. Oh boy.

New Job

I've given notice to my current employer and am starting a new job on 11/16. My last day is Friday the 13th!! Going to work for an ex-employer and am very excited. Hopefully, I have made a good decision. It's a familiar environment with lots of people I have worked with before. There is a bit of sadness leaving, but a new challenge and adventure to look forward to. Wish me luck!!
