Storms all night and my dog came in my room for safety. She does not like thunder and it was loud and woke me up anyway. Then the rain was coming down hard. So not much sleep. Then my phone rang through my watch at 8 and woke me and it was some crazy number I deleted about storm insurance. 
I have call block but those things get through sometimes. I felt sort of weak when I got up and am mainly tired. I needed to make an eye appointment for the arthritis doctor and got that done and had problems sending the blood work to my doctor. I finally got it. Their website is not working. I mentioned it to the guy because I had not been able to get into my portal and then it was just gone. He said it was a mess because their web person got sick and then died and things are all a mess getting the stuff he had. Yikes! Anyway I finally got that done. and went on to deal with the yard people but can't reach them due to them closing because of the weather.
Finally, I did Kelly's new Raw Box, Bands, and Abs 52 minutes (due to writing it down)
233 calories, heart rate 120/172, 1,116 steps. I liked this one. No impact at all and it works different muscle groups. I did a bit of stretching on my own to loosen up but did not count them in my time. At first I was worried when I saw the step with 3 risers, but then read the description which I am glad Kelly does and she said it is not needed. Last set of abs is done on the floor as planks anyway.
Kelly also did a Box 4 Your Waistline Workout and a Raw Rebound and Box.

Belinda, thank you. I am better today. Just mainly tired.
Debbie, I am glad you are doing better. I am glad that your cardiologist changed your meds. It seems like your doctor would have wanted to change your med you were taking if it was affecting you badly. That is too bad you were experiencing all of those side effects. I seem to have side effects for a lot of meds. I always start slow with them because of that. But, you really needed help with your BP. I hope they can get your mother's bp up so that she can have her energy back.
I told my daughter there was a lady standing by me waiting to get in the one bathroom in the waiting area that was obviously sick. When she got in you could hear her vomiting flushing and vomiting some more. When she came out she left the building. I had thought maybe it was medicine or she had had an infusion at the time. I guess you can catch some viruses that quick, but not often. The arthritis center needs better restrooms anyway. Everyone uses one at the medical end and one at the pharmacy and lab end. Not even modern touch free stuff. My husband said he thinks I had what he had a while back. It sure hit me suddenly. My doctor made a note on my labs about the low white count about watching it and thinks it is due to the inflammation and arthritis.
