Still here
Well...here it is...Labor Day. The end of my favorite season..I get depressed thinking about the end of warm weather, the end of baseball season, the prospect of closed windows, more clothes to wash and higher heating bills...Fuck
As far as my health goes....Ive been back to work for like 3 weeks since my heart attack recovery. It feels as if nothing ever happened!!...actually, I've been feeling better than I did before my cardiac event. I've NOT smoked any cigarettes since July 11th. There are times when I'll be sitting watching teevee or at work, when I'll all of a sudden realize I've QUIT!!!...Then, there are other times, like after I eat, or in the morning when I have a coffee, that I really crave one....I dunno..I've talked to people that say the craving never goes away completely. I guess I just have to remember that scene in my head where I was laying in the back of the ambulance wondering if I was gonna die or what to keep me off of the ciggs.
I've been eating way healthier than ever!..I'm conscious of the fat and cholesterol content of nearly everything I eat now. See, I never had high blood pressure, or had to be concerned with being overweight..two of the signs of heart disease. The docs said that my heart arteries were clogged from high cholesterol and clots caused by smoking.
Economically, I've been pretty much fucked....I lost a month of pay when I was recoverin'....I've been trying to sell my VW Van (my only asset..lol..) to try and make up my money shortfall...I've had that van for 8 years, and believe it or not, one CAN love a car!!...Sure, I had to keep a close eye on it 'cuz it was kinda old...but, thats what brought me close to it I guess...I dunno, it's kinda like selling a pet or a kid.....It hurts to think I wont have it soon.. Cant ya just imagine what fun this bus has been!!
Okie doke....I guess thats enough for today....Peace all
