Another month is almost over.  I often wonder where time has gone.  It goes by faster the older I get.  I expect another low-key July and August.  Spending July and August at the lake in a comfortable cottage is still an item on my bucket list.  Sadly, I realize that this is something that will probably not happen.

Our weather has been quite humid which to my surprise has affected my breathing.  On June 2nd while walking a short distance to my cardiologist’s office I found myself unable to breathe normally.  Thankfully, my husband was with me, and went back to the car to get my wheelchair.  I know it is pathetic of me to let my pride dictate whether I would or would not use the wheelchair.  The proverb “Pride goeth before a fall” was literally true in my life.  Thank goodness we have air conditioning.

My cardiologist has put me on a third high-blood pressure to try and prevent further thickening of my heart muscles.  I sure hope that it helps without too many side effects. I am booked for a CT scan of my lungs.  I find this worrisome but am trying not to let my imagination run wild.

This is going to be a short post.  Don’t have enough energy to think and write.  Hope you all are having a wonderful summer.
