And, today was much more spring-like...not as windy...pretty blue sky and the temperatures started out quite cold, but warmed up nicely as the day wore on. I did venture out after lunch. I mailed in my tax check and went to Kroger to do a little grocery shopping. I try to make a grocery trip every other week. But this week my thinking that I might be on the edge of a gout attack, I decided that I should go buy some more gout friendly foods. Some of what I bought last week isn't recommended to eat when having gout problems. I hadn't had problems with gout for so long that I had wandered away from even thinking about gout appropriate food. I have just been eating what appeals to me...so I will try to be better at least for the time being! I will say that one point when I was in the midst of a very bad bout with gout, my doctor told me that what I ate wasn't going to make any difference with my gout. But I figure that if I am on the beginning edges of gout, that perhaps what I eat will make a difference. One of the most important is to drink plenty of water and also green tea is good for ails one when one has gout. So I have water and green tea next to me all the time...and try to keep drinking. I am feeling better, but "things" still aren't exactly right. I have worked some more on the Sunday School lesson...hoping to have my notes for the lesson ready to type off before I go to bed tonight...time will tell on that one...but at least I do still have tomorrow to get it finished. I did finish reading another book today. Tonight...work on Sunday School lesson and hopefully do a little stitching and a little TV watching before I go to sleep. To be continued! Be safe! Be well! Be cautious!
