Come to Me

The Lord told me at the beginning of the year that my health was to be a priority this year. I thought, OK, I will start back to Crossfit (check) and eat better (semi-check). Still I had high cholesterol, and the results of a Coronary Artery Calcium Scan (CACS) showed buildup in my arteries. OK, my doctor had my attention, and I started taking cholesterol medication.

Daddy, I Broke It, Can You Fix It?

Tuesday I found out I have heart disease. It's something I should have known, given my high cholesterol for the last few years. But I've been ignoring it. Trying to eat better. Trying to lose weight. Trying to exercise.

Faith and Human-ness, Part 1

Yesterday I slid into a telephone pole and a mailbox. Thankfully the cross-street was clear when I slid across it, and thankfully I was only going 5 mph or so. My nephew was with me, and he helped pull the fender out, fix the headlight (temporarily), and duct tape the left side mirror.
