Thanks for asking guys.  I got my heart running in the right rhythm and there is no clotting.  Was supposed to limit activities (which is easy for me).  And then yesterday I had dialysis and it was dialysis from hell.  I almost walked out but I didn't.  I'll be so glad when the "good" nurse comes back from vacation (Jul 19).  Maybe I can wait.  Anyway was tired last night from that, but waking  on this Saturday just fine.  And the good fairies came and cleaned my house while I was gone to dialysis yesterday.  The weather is amazing in Houston.  Hot, but amazingly dry and nice.  I'm thinking of working in the yard today.  Haven't planted a thing this year and the mulberry bush in (yes I mean in) my deck is way over grown.  Get the clippers!

Enjoy the day!  Cleaning mulberries off the deck ought to be enough to keep anyone in shape  :)

HEHE... glad you understand!  Years ago when I built the deck there was this cute little mulberry bush they were going to have to dig up.  I asked them to please build the deck around it.  And now it is no longer a cute little bush but a giant bush/tree  growing in the middle of everything.

DW, glad you are doing ok. I worried about you all day Thursday (when I wasn't falling asleep).    We had a Mulberry "bush" when I was a kid.  My Dad was a very quiet, gentle man, but he hated that bush!!  What a mess the berries made.   Good luck clipping and cleaning!!
