Sherry must have gotten old; I didn’t know that!

 

Pic of the day;

 I could not tell Joshua from Stephen in 1987

But in 2013 at Joshua and Megan's wedding,
they are the last two on the right. Yep they have both been fans of Super Heroes, so this is at the wedding, neat huh? Now I can tell them apart!  LOL


 Josh is Superman, he just completed a 26.2 mile Marathon, I consider that SUPER!

 For today:

Well, it finally happened my young wife of 68 years must now be old.  She now wears hearing aids, and her hair covers them; she isn’t saying ‘what did you say?’ anymore. NICE.

I did not go into the office otherwise I might not keep my opinions to myself. One thing I TRY to do is NOT give advice on a person’s health, unless I see a DANGER. I DO NOT recommend vitamins or any supplements. I have an opinion, and it is if you eat well this body will take care of itself. I also think if you listen, your body will tell you things that a doctor cannot see or know. HOWEVER I do know also that everyone’s body is different. So, if eggs are good for me, they might be terrible for someone else.

I actually changed one of my meds the Dr. gave me. I Cut in half the prescription of Statin, then finally cut it out. The Dr. was ok with that, however he did remind me “You are no doc-ta!”, so let me know when you change something.  He is a great guy and of course I am honest with him.

I am gonna tell him I have changed the ‘Iron’ prescribed by his substitute at my last appointment from one a day -- to one a week.  It makes no sense to me to put my body thru daily constipation which then requires something to relieve the constipation. LOL

When I am straining, I think of Elvis.  I read he died on the stool straining.  Shucks 85 is too young to die on the potty.  LOL

I am terrible with sight recognition. As a kid, I studied the FBI’s most wanted criminals faces that hung in every Post Office. But when I turned to go out the door, if I met one, I would not know him. Sherry on the other hand, would.

She commented that Myra is one who can note sights and similarities as well, saying that just by her blog and comments. re: the comment of Josh and JJ.

When a new baby is born in our family, they all look alike to me, but Sherry will pick up something that is like the mother or daddy.  NOT ME!

That doesn’t mean I am thick; if I think hard enough I can tell you the measurements of our house and rooms. LOL! OH YES, and I can tell the difference in a 1955 & 1956 Chevy; or tell a Packard from a Studebaker, BY GRAVY! 

                                The one below is definitely the Studebaker!


I couldn't tell our Grand-Twins apart as kids, but I can now! They have matured, took different paths, but are great guys.

Yay for the new hearing aids! They've made such a difference in our lives -- provided, of course, that I remember to ask Tom to shut off the bluetooth (TV) connection. Between his aids and my car, modern technology's a steep learning curve.
Good to know about all the meds! Our VA's begun sending him iron supplements, and just now I understand why he struggles with constipation.
Love from 'Bama!

PS - Thanks for the mention, Sherry!

You're right about different advice from doctors and what we know about ourselves and what the body tells us. When I went to the doctor's and said "I have water on my knee!" he said I was not aiming straight. What did he mean?

God bless.

You're not alone... most babies look the same to me, too! I like your outlook on medical issues!

As babies your two grandsons did look a like - but not now. Cute their superheroes t-shirts. I hate medicine - I take it, but I hate it. Where did you read about Elvis - that is too funny - or sad I guess. I would not want to die on the potty either!
