The HR department puts on Wellness seminars regularly and i just went to one today on menopause. It probably could have been longer because there was no time for questions which might have been helpful but there was a lot of good information on what happens, why, what you could expect and some of the things you can do to help yourself. Specifically calcium and vitamin D intake and exercise, those were the things they emphasized the most. 3 times a week, 30-60 minutes is recommended, though you can break it up in shorter bursts instead of all at once. I guess i better get my patootie back to the gym :) In fact, i'm off tomorrow so maybe i'll do it.

Dad got along ok with his throat stretching procedure though it was later in the afternoon he had it and was late getting back to the hospital where he's been because the ambulances were busy. The lump right in front of his throat that he thought he had was actually bone. They didn't take out the other one in his neck so i guess that's going to be all part of however they end up dealing with the whole issue. He is still scheduled to have the voice restoring procedure tomorrow. Sis and i are going to go see him when i get off work today.
