I'M GETTING BLOODY OLD!
BUT I'M STILL A GR8 TECHIE ! .........A SELFIE ..... !
I
was in the hospital 4 days January - high BP - 220/112 ! Got it down to
160/80, by July, but the pills caused a bit of a prob. (They're the updated
versions of my old pills.) I have had to reduce my alcohol intake. Never mind !
BP now130/65 .....
I'm 40 yo again !!)
Again, back in hospital, for a couple of hours, in June ..... my right leg disappeared ! I thought it was a TIA, but the doc said no, most likely sat awkward on my leg. I believe that I was right .... (I always am ... ho ho ho ....!)
Overall, doing very well. The brain box seems to be maintaining its competence, though I notice the memory is going, especially with names. (That's so common in old age.)
Bought a Nexus 7 & an HP 11" Chromebook to keep the brain active & to see how the youngsters use them. Now got four computers ! Did the "selfie" over on the right with the Nexus 7. Not keen on the Chromebook.
Did a website for my dear son, Carl, have a look www.carlaylward.com

Looked at my horoscope on BT OnLine, and this is it. I like the ultimate sentence, what the bloody hell HAVE I been doing all my life!!
“Like all Leos, you take care of others. You not only help your friends, but also people you don't know, and you give without demanding anything in return except appreciation. Your power and your light come from your tremendous generosity, dear Leo. Giving is a part of your nature, and nothing can change that. Have you thought about how you could put this wonderful part of your character into the service of humanity as a whole?”

When my father died, he left little other than memories. I inherited a piece of his moral prose :- King Akihito 1st king of the 9th dynasty of Egypt 2271 -CD A letter to his son. Be diplomatic in speech; speech is more powerful than any armament, none being able to circumvent a clever speaker. Respect a life of energy, for self- complacency will make a wretched man of you; yet a fool is he who is greedy of what others possess. Take care that you do not punish wrongfully. Slay not any man that is about you, for God in whose care he is, commends him to you. Do not make a distinction between the son of a noble and one of humble birth. But take a man to you because of his merits. Indolence would ruin heaven itself. |
