Doctor says drink daily!

WHOO HOO!! I'm not lying!! My doctor's office called me last week to come in and discuss my blood work. I must admit, I was pretty worried. There's a history of diabetes and heart disease in our family. Anyway, I went in yesterday and got the verdict. My good cholesterol is low! Imagine!! Not something to worry about as long as I treat it with diet and exercise. So, add to my menu: avocados, nuts, salmon, mackerel, olives and alcohol. Yes, alcohol, 1 drink daily. And exercise 5 times a week. What a relief!

In other news, I finally started making my Christmas cards last night. I started one style and have most of the pieces done. Just have to put them together. I plan on making 4 styles, 10 cards each. That will give me 40 cards plus the dozen or so I have now. If it's not enough, I may do 12 of each. I have to revisit my list. I always have extra people I send to that I forget about. Oh, and I have leftovers from last year so maybe I'll rely on them. Speaking of Christmas, I'm going to E's daycare tomorrow night to decorate. Very excited to help out and spread some holiday joy to the kiddies. :) Other than that, there's not much new in Bern's world today. Hope you're having a super day! And have a drink would'ya! After work of course. :)

A drink a day keeps the doctor away! I had heard that about wine, red wine but not about anything else. Hmmmm, intersting!!! It's all in the name of medicine ;) Congrats on the good blood work. Always nice to know. I know I need to work on adding some of those things to my diet, particularly the salmon. We don't eat enough fish!!!

Have fun decorating!

That's going to be my excuse to taking up drinking again. It's good for my health.

woooooooooo hooooooooo is right!!! I've always heard that a glass of red wine a day is great for you. Too bad I'm a vodka girl and just can't drink the vino

Am excited about the cards as well and glad to get them done!!!
