Bruised

 

Notification on the side of a box of peaches.

I need a similar warning. I've been on aspirin therapy since my heart attack 13 years ago - full size aspirin, not baby aspirin. I know old people bruise more easily due to the loss of collagen and the thinning of the skin. However, lately the bruising has gotten worse. I called the cardiologist's office the other day and I'm now on the baby aspirin. That should help the bruising situation, hopefully without any detrimental effect on the heart health.

The youngest grandson came down Friday. He wants to get his motorcycle endorsement and get a motorcycle project. I was going to let him ride the Himalayan around the property to get some practice, but it started raining right after he got here. We did go over to the storage space and looked over the inventory. I've got a pair of Yamaha SR500s that are basically frames as they sit, but I've got boxes of parts where he could make one nice one out of the two. I need to get rid of things and he could build himself something nice without spending a ton of money. Have to see how that works out.

Lots of rain yesterday. The rain would come down hard, stop for a bit, and when I was about ready to head out to the shop, it would start up again. I don't like being out in the shop when it's raining hard, so needless to say, I didn't get much done out there yesterday.
