Well, I have been diagnosed with high blood pressure. They have put me on Toprol. Oh well!
No major expenses since the washing machine and dryer.
I have been on the forums trying to say a few things here and there but my heart is not in it right now.
Bills are in good shape and wife has not run up any new ones and I have not either.
Hope everyone here is doing well.
Will check back in when my head is in a better frame.
High Blood Pressure.

Sometimes I'm all gung ho myself and others - eh, not so much!!
Hubster takes Toprol - I think he gets his at Walmart on their $4 dealyplan. ??I THINK?? Anyway, you might want to check it out. He's snoozing right now or I'd ask him.

Maybe you have the January "Blahs". I have been feeling a little down lately too. Cheer up, you're debt free!

Just don't try the Atkins diet! My DH lost tons of weight on it and then had a heart attack (at 37)! After a 6 way bypass he is on Toporol among other things!
Just start out small, by eating less and psyching yourself out so that you eat less often. You will be surprised that this starts to work without the so called "dieting". And ease into just a little exercise, park father away from places, take the dog for a walk (or get one and take it for a walk, pets are supposed to help with high blood pressure too! )
Good luck buddy!

boomeyers, I was warned off the Atkins because I was told it can put a strain on the kidneys. I am going to ease into healthier life choices. I hope your husband feels better. That heart attack had to be one of the scariest thing you and your husband have experienced.
