Why not add more?

So i have not been sleeping very well this last little while and wake up with a headache.
When i went for my usual 3 mo check my doctor suggested i get my thyroid checked and do an overnight oxygen test to see if that wasn't the problem. My blood pressure is also very high again and although i have been thinking it was just the white coat syndrome and the unknown stress of seeing the Dr so often, i had checked it periodically and it has stayed high. So i am now on a bp med. Why not add more right? Soon i will be on more drugs than an elderly person. The thyroid came back normal though so that is good, just frustrating that i am so tired all the time even though i go to the gym almost everyday.
Really it could be worse, just complaining which i try not to do.
We have had a good couple of weeks at our house. Owen is loving the pool! We even went to seven peaks with my family yesterday. It was so hot but Owen loved it.
Jeremy will start training in SLC in about a week along with his new schedule 2pm-10:30pm. It will be an adjustment for all of us.
My birthday is on Monday and i am going for a massage! I am so excited to just lay there and relax. We are having a family party on Sunday and i am making a new version on apple pie. The recipe i have substitutes apples for zucchini. I got the recipe from a girl in my ward and she fooled her husband with it so i cant wait to try it on my family! If it turns out i will email you all the recipe.

I saw you from a distance at Seven Peaks in the wave pool and I think we have the same swim suit from Hapari....girafe print? Anyhow, I was SO READY to leave and I do not actually go in past my waist if I can help it, funny huh since we have season passes. Anyhow, sorry I didn't say hi. I totally know how you feel about your husbands new shift! John works 4pm-1am and I hate that we only see eachother in passing. It is nice to have more day time hours though and if I have learned anything about challenging work schedules over the years is that it is for the best even if it doesn't make any sense now. Hope your feeling better, let me know if I can do anything for you! I love ya!!
