I am so ready for bed. Today has been a very good day. We’ve had some pretty serious storms roll through but it was kind of relaxing. I love that kind of weather, in small doses, of course.

We also got some really good news about our friend Montie. He had his third widow maker heart attack. Unreal. I’m not sure what his specific issues are because he’s not terribly overweight and he used to be into heavy lifting, but there’s obviously some type of underlying issues that has caused it to happen three times. We are very glad to hear that he is doing OK. When we first heard he was being life flighted we were very concerned. But in true Montie style he was posting on Facebook and keeping us informed of his STEMIs.

So scary. Heart stuff is terrifying. I had to be hooked up to a heart monitor last year because I was experiencing heart palpitations, but it turned out everything was fine and it was just perimenopause and apparently the residuals of vaping for so long. Apparently that’s a very common thing that happens with people who vape for long periods- they start having heart palpitations has something to do with the change of restricted blood flow. In some cases it can cause an irregular heartbeat, but luckily everything was OK. I was thinking about that last night though when he was so calm and talking about all the things they were doing to him. I can’t even imagine how scared he was.

I’m just so thankful that he lived through it again. He has a son that is Gage‘s age. He’s a good bit older than both of us, but he went to school with my brother and he added Gary on fb years back and they bonded over Saints football.

He’s a very lucky man. Most people don’t live through three massive heart attacks like that.

I didn’t really do a thing today except rest and watch a LOT of TV so there’s nothing to tell. I’m about to do my nightly devotional, look at my Bible for a minute and call it a night.
