Anybody heard from Griff lately?
Not since I got rid of Facebook.
You quit facebook, so Griff quit coming here?
I still get notifications and lurk here. However, as noted, I spend a lot of time on Facebook, mostly involving hobbies other than motorhomes.
Been busy since early last spring with unusual heat, nearby wildfires, and smoky conditions resulting in frequent angina of varying intensity.
Quit smoking with last cigarette in the evening of September 26th.
Quintuple (five-way) bypass surgery on September 27th, followed by a week in the ICU and then at-home recovery. Twice weekly cardiac rehab since, which tends to wear me out. (Traveling to and from town contributes to the weariness.)
The surgery went better than the surgeon and the cardiologist expected. (They had scheduled an average good-case stay in the ICU but were able to release me one day early.)
For me, the results of the surgery, plus quitting smoking, is much, much better than I expected. I feel better than I've felt in over five years. Enough so that I've revived some plans and efforts that I'd given up on.
Good for you! You’ll be amazed at how much better you’ll feel, with each passing day, and how much better things are going to smell and food is going to taste.
Now you just need to quit Facebook and you’ll really feel better! Best thing I ever did for my mental health. I got rid of Twitter and Instagram too and have never looked back.
