Although I could have a lot to rant about, I'm just posting to say I'm alive and mostly well.

I had a bit of a scare a few weeks back when I started getting a lot of headaches and my face felt hot. Luckily, we have a CVS blood pressure monitor which told my my blood pressure was 160/100. Oh, not good.

I know my blood pressure has been creeping upward over the past few years so I decided to keep track of it over a couple of days. After averaging around 145/90 I decided to visit my doctor.

I'm on Lipa-something now and my BP is down around 120/75. That's more like it and closer to my historical average.

I'm also feeling a little better in general. I've been messing up things at work - just small things that I usually catch but it shows my mental state hasn't been in a good place for a while.

Anyways, life is okay at the moment. Still have Home Owner stuff to stress about but that's for another post.
