Games our minds play

Yea, you know what lousy patients medical personnel are, but I have been trying to get “healthy” and that means take care of myself medically. Sure it is a bunch of stuff but if we have the facilities here in this country to take care of our selves and don’t use it we might as well be living in the Sudan. It is fairly cheap and easy to PREVENT problems by watching our diet and exercising, and getting a few screening tests run every year and getting some vaccines. Usually the Health department will give flu vacs for free or low cost, there are health fairs that will check Blood pressure and blood glucose, and Health departments will usually do free STD checks too and you may have to look around but even mammograms for low cost or no cost are available in Arkansas for goodness sakes, ,so where ever you live there’s something free in health care or low cost!

Every one of us has access to the internet so there’s lots of good stuff we can look up on diet and exercise, and all that good stuff!

Hey, NO FANATIC LIKE A CONVERT!!!! Mama’s on a heallth kick so everyone’s on a health kick! LOL

Damn armadillos, wish they’d go back to Texas where they belong! They moved in up here about 25 years ago. When we first moved up here the place was like a swiss cheese with the suckers! We would back the tractor up to their holes and stick a pipe from the tractor exhaust down in their hole and take a shovel full of the dirt mound they had made and gas’em to death. Took a few months but we wiped them about out I guess. Seldom see them now.

Was lovely to just walk among the trees and grass and down by the pond and look at the various trees and vines growing up in them and how pretty the pasture looked. It was a weed/brush covered thicket when we moved back here, but through lots of hard work it looks much nicer now, almost like a golf course.

The soil is healthy now again too, the butcher birds had put bugs on the barbs of the barbed-wire fences, and there are dung beetles back here again (health soil has them and they “curb” and clean up after the cows! taking the poo about 3 ft down into the soil) Isn’t that neat! Saw painted buntings song birds here the other day, and a hawk that nests near our yard. So it’s peaceful here again and the black cloud that hung over the place (almost a real one!) is about gone now, though it is still kind of “dark” over by the egg donor’s corner of the farm. I don’t get too close over there.
