Yes, it’s another photo of the beautiful fountain at Tivoli Village. A beautiful photo under an almost always blue sky, I chose well in staying in Las Vegas. I’m feeling very frustrated this eve because of the constant battle with my blood pressure. I’ve been battling this BS since 2016 and once in a while I just get angry, sometimes it seems like this body is trying to kill me! Almost any food can raise my blood pressure and I’m sick of taking my blood pressure several times per day and heading for the little pharmacy in my bathroom cabinet. If you aren’t dealing with this BS every day, consider yourself blessed! Now, let’s go check that blood pressure again…
My meds don’t make me feel sluggish, nor does high BP but when it’s very low from the meds I can feel a little weak.
First of all, beautiful photo. Secondly, I feel your pain with the ticker. It drives me up the wall sometimes
Thank you so much, Vinny! You have mentioned your ticker in your posts, the struggle is very real. And scary… Be well, sir! 👍🏻🇬🇧
Yeah it’s a pain in the ass!Just take every day as it comes.
We have no other choice, Vinny…
Yep!
John, the photograph is beautiful and wonderfully composed!
Thank you so much, Kaya! ❤️
John, I am sorry to hear that you constantly struggle with your blood pressure. Does your blood pressure go down on the days you ride your bike? I think riding a bike helps…
It does go down a bit when riding, another big plus for biking!
I tried to share a link but you must have settings to stop links. sorry
I’m not aware of any settings in the site’s back end that would disallow posting links, I’ve done it myself. Sorry about that!
That’s ok. I Set mine for just one link. Go to “Settings” where there are a list of stuff. Use the listed under “Discussion”. scroll down the “Discussion Settings” page. It’s almost at the bottom. You can choose ) or multiple links allowed. It may had been set to “0” from the time you set up your blog. I found it my accident.
Thanks, I just checked that, it’s set to two links so I don’t see why you’ve had trouble.
I’ll try again sometime. 🙂
OK. ☺️

Did you know: Laughter helps reduce blood pressure.
So if that made you laugh, try taking your blood pressure now… or, tell me to go bag my head. ;
I have no doubt that it does, and I get some laughs each day one way or another. 😂
🙂 I was told once that laughing at one of my silly poems caused a reader to fall off their chair. Now that’s funny but could be also painful. 😉
Yeah, ouch! You can’t be responsible the falling off though. 😂
😂
I think you are right! ❤️

Did you know: Laughter is the fastest approach to lower blood pressure. Seriously! https://www.parashospitals.com/blogs/laughter-help-lower-blood-pressure/
Now if such a statement made you laugh, then perhaps you can now take your blood pressure. Or, swear at me. 😉
Beautiful photo, John. Hope you can manage to keep your BP stabile without too much trouble, that does sound frustrating.
Thank you! It really is a struggle every day but I have no choice but to continue the battle, Leah. The other choice is let it go which will damage the internal machinery…
Hope all goes well with John . Take care .
Thanks, Anita! The struggle is real! Not dealing with it means death simply put…
Love this fountain. I hope you get your blood settled down. Chronic issues like that are so frustrated. Mine are respiratory issues. Seems I spend half my time trying to breathe. 🤦
Thank you! Not being able to breath is so scary, i’e had bad colds that have made it difficult because of the phlegm. The struggle to push the BP back down is real and so frustrating. I am completely dependent on 4 medications to keep the BP down. Grrrrr!
Yikes that is bad. 😳. Dan takes one. It is a miserable one but it does keep his blood pressure down.
If the med is Hydralozine then it tastes horrid!
No it is Atenanol (not sure of the spelling).
I looked that med up, here’s a link:

Thank you, John. It definitely makes one feel sluggish – which is the worst thing for anyone with high blood pressure because keeping active and controlling one’s weight is crucial for anyone with circulatory issues. And doctors don’t warn people that you have to really work to counter this effect or the lowered blood pressure won’t mean anything. 🤦
