Physical Time


Went in for my annual a couple of weeks ago. Blood pressure and such were all normal; cholesterol was a tad high, which is new to me. Going to work on that. I've been eating like my teenage son and have not been exercising as much as I should. The really good news is that the liver panel was normal. I have an appointment with the gastro doc this month and will be getting another PCR (virus count -- see previous post).


I spent last week in Colorado in business meetings and classes. I work for a big technology company you've definitely heard of. The team of guys who do what I do are scattered across the country and we all work on separate projects. We rarely get together, but had an opportunity to have an intact team class. I recounted the last time we got together in a previous post. That was a rough one. I had not seen most of these guys face-to-face, including my boss, in nearly two years. Several comments from the guys. They knew I was going through something and that I was pretty weak last time, but I didn't advertise what I was dealing with. They knew I was kind of a mess from the way I got lost, and from my appearance. What a difference this time. I ran 2+ miles on three of the five days I was there. Much better! I think the PCR test later this month will bear out how good I feel. Sure hope so, anyway.
