The wind chill this evening will be -30 C with an actual temp of -22C. We will leave the faucets dripping. I have never had frozen pipes and hope I never do. Then we have a slow warming trend.
Hey ColinJ, thanks again for the AFIB YouTube. I have scheduled an appt with my cardio doc based on that. It would be damned inconvenient if I stroked out before the cancer kills my wife as she would be institutionalized fer sure if I couldn't take care of her.
The visit with my eldest son over the last few days took a big load off my mind. I have given my youngest who has all kinds of health problems a lot of money and I have been struggling with what would be a fair split of our assets. I was pleased to know the older son is far less concerned with how much he gets vs keeping the family relationships strong. Inheritances can cause a lot of ugliness between inheritors and drive a wedge between good relationships. His wife's people just had a particularly vicious fallout over her grandma's estate and I want whatever we can leave to make their lives better, not worse.
Now I've gotten all that depressing crap off my chest I would like to report we rented the new Dune movie from Amazon Prime while he was here and enjoyed it a lot. We enjoyed the first one and this new one is very good as well. l have also been watching The Rookie with Nathan Fillion and enjoy the quirky stories and the ensemble cast. Nice to have a little diversion.
Be well and safe.

One of those meals you "just add water" to?Very nice ham bap with skinny fries for lunch at the Aggi.
Washed down with 'Atlantic' pale ale.

I found it pretty sobering! It taught me quite a few things that I didn't know before but some of those cause worry...
YouTube has been doing its thing since then and recommending lots of other videos on the subject. I have watched a couple of them but maybe I shouldn't watch any more for now!
I am already doing more than half the things that I should be doing, and am avoiding most of the things that I shouldn't. It would be good to lose another 7.5 kg/16 lbs. Getting a lot more sleep would be a very good idea too, especially QUALITY sleep - 5 hours of fitful sleep and an hour or two of naps is not the same thing as 7 good hours.

Good Morning. The weather seems quite benign, we shall see. There's ironing to do at some point and that's about it.
I'll pop out to climb some hills for 2-3 hours and then see what the day brings. First I'm going to have a snooze.........🥱

Morning. Overcast and breezy with the chance of some drizzle.
I really must take my time with Wordle. Rushed it again and forgot to use a correct letter on my third guess so took 4 goes.

Good Morning
Made a stupid mistake over the weekend when i realised i had run out of tablets
for my Polymyalgia.Took me four days to get them after the pharmacy said they had none in stock.
Only four days but it's set me back especially with my cycling.
*I don't know why this is coming out in bold font?
Update the font thingy is fixed.

Good morning all, warmer this morning, grey and damp, crap night last night, hips complaining when I was laying on them and my good hip was complaining more than my dud hip, lunch later then down the club for the afternoon, we'll see if they've got themselves organised at last, or not.

One of my neighbours has that and seems to have bad spells every so often. I know he is elderly now but it's sad to see him struggling as he has always really looked after himself with an excellent diet and exercise in his younger days. We never know what's round the corner for us

Managed a 5k jog/plod/shuffle It felt hard work as usual but I was slightly quicker round the loop than last time so I suppose that's good.
A nice soak in the bath now before brekkie.

This came up on my memories on Face book, the Guy Salmon charity ride in 2013, and me queuing for my pre ride coffee, the bearded fella in a red jacket, good times and a excellent ride.
