Let's link up with Doodle Bugs Teaching and share your week.
This isn't exactly healthy, but it is pretty good and HALF of it IS healthy!
Pumpkin Spice Almonds and candy corn is delicious mixed together!
Taking my blood pressure 4 times a day (when I remember). The smallest thing can make it go up. My life is pretty calm at home...no big decisions are required at the moment...
I am concerned what it will do when I return to work.
and yes....I'm on medicine to help keep it down.
Two MRI appointments this week!
The second one was using contrast...I really hate needles and my veins are very uncooperative.

I am really hoping my brain has healed...but not sure I'm ready to handle the stress of my job. : (

We've gotten some snow and are expecting more this weekend!
I am taking a walk every day and attempting to get back in working shape--ha!
Take care and talk to you next week,
Paula
