Just got my bloodwork info back from my physical on Monday. All of it looks GREAT! My cholesterol is actually down by 27 points since the last time I had the full panel done in 2005, because I was at 210 then, and I'm down to 183 now! The HDL and LDL levels are good, with the LDL being below the level mentioned in the reference range, and the ratio of the two being below the reference range, as well. I'm thrilled about that, because my Doc had made noises about putting me on cholesterol meds, when I first saw him after getting out of the hospital, because he assumed that, when he tested it, my cholesterol would be high because I'm overweight.

Just goes to show you, you can't always assume!

Excellent labs, Suzi!

Well, we’re hookin’ on to the city. We weighed our options and it’s either replace the laterals in our 40 year old septic field or hook on to the city. Both cost about the same, so we’re opting with the city so we never have to worry with it again. I also feel like it will make the house more sellable in the future.

Our neighbors were a bit anxious about it...the city sewer line is on their side of the fence. But after talking to several plumbers, I finally got one that I liked and the price was right...I took that plumber over to my neighbors and he re-assured them.
