Not the best of news

*** sigh *** 
Everything has changed ~ again ~ and not for the better this time.
The home is gone. The park it was in is switching over to seasonal and not doing 12 month occupancy so that deal is gone,.... gone,.... gone,...

But that isn't even the reason I won't be moving soon. During the FIFA game this afternoon, I started getting palpatations in my chest. I took my blood pressure and it was very high. So I called the walk-in and got an appointment. It was still high when I got there. He prescribed me medication and then made an appointment with a heart specialist. I have to get bloodwork done as well. I asked him if I was ok to fly, as I am off to BC in 2 weeks. He re-listened to my heart and said yeah. Just make sure I get myself to that heart specialist.

My grandfather died of a heart attack at a very young age. 50. He left my grandma pregnant with 7 kids. My cousin John is still alive but he had a heart attack in his 50's (I'll be 63 in September) He had 95% blockage and 3 stents put in. 

So, I have been told not to over exert.

So my BC trip might look a bit different. No surfing or ocean swimming. Maybe more sight-seeing and enjoying cafe's and restaurants this time. 

And,... I have to put looking for a new place on the back burner. Not wise to cause myself more stress. So once again - my plans have changed. Now nothing gets done until I see this heart specialist.

So now I just go and enjoy BC and then deal with my heart when I get back. Whatever that ends up looking like. Once my health is under control I will resume looking for a home.

So now I sit here with my apartment packed. I have just the day-to-day stuff left out but everything else is already packed up in boxes. I thought I would have been moved by now.

And i didn't have to get Molly and Murphy re-homed so quickly either. I still struggle with missing them. But it was better to rehome them as kittens rather than when they were older and I love the family they went to so I know they are well loved and looked after. But boy do I ever miss them. The apartment seems so quiet and still now.
