.....it's a dogs life

this little guy has sat patiently on my desktop for years probably and today was his moment as i sat with a cup of coffee and contemplated what has been a very difficult week involving difficult decisions and difficult moments and difficult choices....... he sniffed and looked quizzical and made me laugh which was good considering when i had my blood pressure checked by occupational health (cos they were doing a health check session on our site) it was 164/105 which apparently is not very good but was taken, to be fair at the very height of this last stressful week. so i've got an appointment at the doctors where i will also mention my palpatations and flutters that go on with worrying regularity in my heart........

as for events of the week there have been few as work has dominated...... and that has made me contemplate that letting work dominate is folly.... understanding what's important is where it's at......

other things oc. health told me was that my cholestorol was 3.9 which is very good my weight was a tad on the high side (well a lot actually) and my waist (around my tummy button) was about 8 inches too big..... more effort on the weight loss front required although you would think with the amount of exercise i do i would be a skinny thing.... alas nature, it appears, is not designed that way... while we share much of or genome with other animals i appear to a little closer to our hippo friends than our leopard friends!
