Well, once again, I have to apologize for the time between posts, but a lot has happened in my life in the last few months.
First thing is, I bought a house in South Florida, and moved out of the apartment in Coral Springs. Bye the way ... the apartments are 'The Hampton's on Heron Bay', and are supposed to be upscale ... not upscale at all, just expensive, and getting pretty old in the tooth. I wouldn't bother looking at these with all the new apartments around!
We bought our new home in Palm Beach County, in south Lake Worth, just on the border with Boynton Beach. We like the area much better then Coral Springs, which was just too crowded, and not nearly as rural as the western part of Palm Beach County. We are very close to the largest equestrian center in the south, and still have a feeling of rural old Florida. We also lived in the area prior to moving to Colorado, so there is a feeling of coming home!
Bye the way we got a great deal, on a gorgeous house ... great time to buy in Florida! If you need a great real estate person in South Florida ... call my guy ... Jeff Katz www.jeffreyjkatz.com .
Prior to moving in the new house, I decided (actually had a low grade toothache) to go to the dentist ... another event with many years between visits. Had 2 wisdom teeth extracted in July, a root canal, a crown, and I just had some peridontal sugery 2 weeks ago. Still have some additional work to be done but the worst is behind me.
Again I found a great dental group ... Dr. AJ, and Dr. Waldee ... they really took care of me, and I really appreicate their skills and 'bedside' mannner! www.sleepdentists.com
Also decided to go and get a long awaited physical, which for the most part turned out well. The only thing that poped up was a very large red flag regarding my cholesterol. Basically it's off the chart, and I have since started in a statin called Lipitor.
In addition to the medication I have started to diet for the first time in my life (lost 10 lbs. in a little over a month), and have begun to seriously study nutrition, and healthy cooking. Needless to say, my wife is doing the I told you so routine ... I now understand that bacon is not a good evening snack! ;-)
So all in all ... life is good, but the twist and turns shake you in to reality.
My new life, especially from a nutrition and fitness perspective, is a good thing, and it is just the encouragement I needed to commit myself to wellness!
Walk on!
