I forgot to update from my last cholesterol check!

Triglycerides 177 now 146

That's after just 10 weeks! That's hitting the gym 5x a week. Fingers crossed for keeping this up!

A not so funny thing happened on the way to the market today...........
I'm back. Really this time.
So......I'm driving to Henry's market today. I'm in the right hand turn lane - it's a double right hand turn lane and I'm in the far left side). The light turns green. I hesitate. The lady in the right hand turn lane next me (on my right side) hesitates for a moment then turns. I turn. Then I see him. An older man in one of those remote control carts. I'm INCHES from him. He's stunned. I'm stunned. I move on so as not to be in the middle of the road. HOLY SHIT I ALMOST HIT A MAN! I see in my rear view mirror that the man has continued on through the intersection. The woman who was in the far right hand turn lane swerves over to cut me off and force me into the left turn lane of the next stop light. She's PISSED. I roll down my window and she proceeds to tell me, "You are such a fucking idiot!! You almost killed that man!!" I'm freaked out, upset, scared...you name it. I don't know what to do. I say, "I know, I'm sorry, I didn't see him, it was an accident." To which she replies, "Well you should have you fucking IDIOT!!" and drives away. I make the U-turn to go back to see if I can find the man. I don't have any idea what I'm going to do or say if I see him. I don't see him. I feel like I'm getting the evil eye from all drivers (I'm not, anybody that saw it had drove on). I go home and cry. What if? I know it was my fault. I've always been afraid of pedestrians crossing while us making right turns have a green light. Pedestrians have the signal to cross as well. I KNOW it was my fault. I should have seen him. But I didn't. Thank God I didn't hit him. Wherever you are sir, I'm sorry. I hope you are okay.
