Holter Moniter and other updates

Today I went to the Dr's and got a holter monitor. It is this heart monitor that records basically...everything. I've had heart palpitation issues most of my life...feels basically like there is a fluttering in my chest or that suddenly there is no air left in my lungs. If they do find something wrong, like mitrovalve prolapse, which my mother has, it will be just one more step towards the surgery. Because of the device I'm wearing, I can't talk on my cell phone or use the microwave for 24 hours. I made my mom call and schedule for me to go to the seminar on gastric bypass to get that started. We shall see!! Still optimistic!
Molly shared a soup recipe with me yesterday that has a ton of protein but is relatively low in calories and fat. I think I will try to make it when I get back from Ohio.
On another note, I was up really late last night because the cats decided to wage war...again. Ever since we moved into this new house Henry has become super SUPER territorial and follows the other cat around. It only happens after we turn the lights off though! During the day, 99% of the time they won't fight. It is weird. In the end I had to lock Henry in the basement with food/water and had kit upstairs. He of course stole my entire side of the bed so when I finally did get to sleep it was in a weird position. I got a kitten in hopes that he would sleep with me, but instead he sleeps with my husband and makes the fat cat sleep on my side. Oh the unfairness of life!

To do:
Get WV licence
Get Library card so I can get audio books for trip to OH with mom
Schedule physical
fill out paperwork when I get it.
