My heart! It's not about valentines day!
A day in the emergency room.       Not my idea of a perfect day.  But when your heart starts to feel like it's being squeezed and you have a family history of heart trouble, you head to the er and strap in.   That was my day yesterday.  Blood work. Cat Scan. Stress Test.   Rest easy, my ticker is fine, a bit inflamed but fine.  I met with a cardiologist, the lovely Dr. McCann.  She gave me the wake up call.   Get fit now Jill.    Or end up back on the stress test treadmill again real soon.  Key objectives;   lose weight, cut stress, don't smoke.  Seems simple doesn't it.  Ah but life is never so simple.   But, I am going to heed the good doctor's advice and get serious about this stuff.   I turn 40 in 196 days! My half marathon is 122 days away.  The time is now.   But first, a nap.......
