Yesterday I was feeling SO good - I even told Donna at lunch that I really felt like I had turned a corner with my heart flip flops. In the afternoon I got brave and decided to try a piece of chocolate. I had ONE Milky Way Easter egg - which is about the size of a fun bar. At suppertime I felt nausea - which passed with eating a little supper. At bedtime my heart started racing, my blood pressure sky rocketed and I went into A Fib. Sigh. I had to take two of my recovery pills and an extra blood pressure pill to get it to calm down. OK, it might not have been the chocolate - but I haven't had the racing heart for quite awhile. Everything is fine today, but grrrrrr!
I have spent the day rearranging tables in my great room. I bought a little accent table at NE Furn. Mart yesterday, and wouldn't you know, it had to be put together. I tried, but Mark ended up having to do it - it had very minimal directions and was very confusing. I had asked the sales person if it needed to be assembled and he said no. When the warehouse brought it out in a box I said 'I was told I wouldn't have to assemble this' to which the warehouse worker said 'Doesn't surprise me - those sales people will tell you anything to get you to buy it'. Another growl.
I didn't like the table in the spot I was thinking, but after rearranging all the other tables and trunk I am satisfied. Now I have to move the new picture over the couch that Matt put up for me one weekend not long ago. Oh well.
I started riding my stationary bike today. My pulmonologist wanted me to start this long ago, but my cardiologist kept telling me to wait. Then I had treatment so haven't quite felt up to it. I will try to ride it every day (unless it is an extremely busy day like Saturday) to see if I can improve my breathing, strength and stamina.

Jacque,
Can't wait to see the new arrangement in your great room. Isn't it funny, one new item will shake everything else up. It is fun though to mix it up a little.
Bummed about your tiny piece of chocolate. You must be extremely sensitive to that "bad" stuff.
I'm impressed that you were on your bike. Good Job!!!
hugs, di
