Last Thursay I started having some disturbing chest pains.  Not often but often enough.  I had a regular Dr. appointment this morning and told him about them.  He was concerned enough to have me do a cardio stress test.  Never did one before.  It was interesting.  Took about 1 hour.  Odd, I did have some pains when I was laying down and have the sonogram part, but, don't think I had any while walking, but, would not have known because toward the end I was breathing really really hard.  I went as long as they wanted, and the Cardiologist PA, fianlly said ease up, and they quit.  They were able to raised the ramp twice from the start, and was at a real good incline.  They all said that I must be in good shape, because they actually had a difficult time to get my heart beat to raise.  So, I think the test will come out OK.  If not, it will be a trip to the Cath Lab.  Sure glad Dudley was there with me, I got coughing so bad afterward I actually peed my pants on the way home, not too smooth.  Been 4 hours since I had it done and still a bit shaky in  the legs.  Will let you know, it will be a couple of days.  Other than that, nothing much else.  Decided not to buy an Ipad or Motorola Xoom, going to hold off and see what comes out later this year.  Karen

Just wanted to say Hi, I worked 6 days in a row last week.  Decided I was going to buy an Ipad 2, and just didn't feel like I should do spend that much for a toy, without bringing in some extra to pay for it.  So I will order it next week, and hopefully it will get here in a month or so.  Hope everyone is doing OK.  Its my day off, and I am going out to help Dudley with the garden fence, then I plan on coming in and frying fish and then watching American Idol.  Just kinda doing nothing.  Have a 6 month appointment with my doctor next week, wanted to have some weight off, oh well, that didn't happen.  Hope everyone is OK.  Karen
