Thanks for all the well wishes. Checked in at 8 a.m. this morning and got sent home around the time my surgery would have taken place. Culprit is my blood pressure, it hit too high for the doctor's liking so he judged it too risky. High blood pressure runs all thru my family all sides but until now I've escaped having to go on meds for it. So I have to relax, de-stress, see my family doctor about getting the BP under control and go from there. Could take awhile, probably in the New Year 'cuz they're soon closing for the holidays at the clinic I go to, but the sooner I get treated the sooner I can get the main issue fixed.

So for now I am avoiding things like the news, politics, crazy neighbours, flamin' idjits and the like. The holiday hustle can take a flying leap, I'm gonna kick back with some good books, good music & good art. Also watching what I eat, especially when it comes to salty snacks & other junk. We'll see how it goes.
