One down...

... and getting toward the end of the list.

One at a time, I'm gradually checking off all the nagging health-related issues that roll around. Got my teeth cleaned and x-ray-ed. No issues. Mammogram - no issues. Blood pressure FINALLY under control. Blood work shows that - quote - "On paper [I'm] in great health."

Yesterday the orthopedist put me on "Call me if you need me" status. He gave me a referral for six more sessions if the PT thinks I need them to finish up rehab on my injured hip. PT says two more, so I should be good there.

One more visit to the internist for the annual poking and prodding and then I should be done for a while.

Follow up on the PT will be regular work-outs at the gym. Not necessarily looking forward to that, but have promised myself that when I finally get this fat off my ass and get all my muscles strengthened, I'm going to find myself a dance class somewhere.

And take up Pilates.

Now, there's a challenge.
