hip deep in pie
My dad had a massive heart attack at 56 and did all the right things after. It did Improve his health but the damage from the first heart attack has been responsible for a valve replacement, a bypass and the insertion of a pacemaker/defibrilator. But he's not had another heart attack. As soon as he recovers from this hip replacement surgery, he'll be a relatively healthy 86 year old, with some replacement parts.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Having my crockpot cook my dinner for me while I'm at work is not really a huge time saver, but walking in the door to discover the house smells deliciously of Hawaiian short ribs is pretty great.
