Do 43 things i've never done before!

The best part, it was for my oldest daughter!!! How proud and lucky I am to have a child who works and studies hard and keeps her eye on her responsibilities and future, without being distracted by others and situations that would slow her growth and wreck her potential.
It was a wonderful celebration with 144 new inductees. They had a nice procession and a bunch of speeches. Really a great pat on the back and celebration for all the students, family, and friends.
By the way this is the type of entry I thought I would fill this goal with. Hopefully, as my health improves and I increase my exercise this indeed will be the type of positive accomplishments and adventures I hope to share. Peace.

Well, the ER doc was wrong, after living with severe pain for a couple of days I scheduled an appointment with a cardiologist, and to make a long story short he strongly suggested I elect to have a Cardiac Catherization (sp?). It is a good thing I did. I had an artery on the right Ventricle that was 99% blocked and needed three stints. That was on Friday. I went home Saturday morning and on Tuesday, I am back at work with a lot more energy and stamina. Here’s to more walks in the woods, picnics by the lake, and more time with the ones I love. Peace.

This entry is not what I anticipated on when I thought of things to fulfill this goal. But, after spending the previous night with rather severe chest pain I was prodded by my family to go to the Hospital.. The good news is that I did not have a cardiac event, the bad news is I separated the cartilidge between my rib cage and sternum. Yes, it hurts.. The Doc says the symptoms would be similar and near the area for a heart attack so it was good that I came in. Anyway, with some pain killers to help, he said it would take 1 to 2 weeks to heal. I am hoping my next entry will return to the spirit of what this goal is intended. This entry however, will always remind me that LIFE IS GOOD!!! and that the alternative is not so good.

I saw this on Georgina47’s list and thought this was a great goal to encourage us 43 thingers to keep reaching for new ideas and new goals. I can only imagine what wonders and exciting opportunities are in store for me as I work on this list. Peace.
