What a strange weather day this has been.  Started out with bright sunshine, then in a little while I looked out the window and was surprised to see such large snow flakes… then after a bit the sun came out again… rinse, repeat… all day long!!! 

The ground temps are warm enough that nothing is sticking, but it won’t be long before the cold weather will be here and ‘it will be sticking to the ground’… and I don’t look forward to that. 

Does it sound like I’m old… well I am!!!  Each year I dread the winter weather pattern more and more.  I do love the looks of the snow falling softly from the sky, but hate when it freezes and causes so much difficulty with driving.  Oh well… this too shall pass!

Update… school bus that just drove by has SNOW piled up on the top of it!!!  It is now about 4:30 pm and the temps are dropping so the snow is starting to stick to the ground...

It turned out to be a good thing

... I didn’t have a heart attack.

I went to the hospital with "heavy chest pressure" ...

I had a chemical stress test today ...

"My test shows that ‘at sometime I’ve had what might be a heart attack, or some slight narrowing’ but nothing serious (this is what I’ve been told since I was about 40 y/o) – nothing can be done at this time as the heart functioned well during this test.  He said I did the right thing to have it evaluated and wished me well and suggested I follow-up with my family doctor.  I mentioned to him that I had already talked with him and he knew I was going to the ER and concurred with my actions and he would be awaiting test results" ...
