A Little Vino Rojo For Vasodilation

I had a small glass of Apothic red wine with my cesar salad dinner tonight. It definitely was quite relaxing & honestly made me rather warm due to the vasodilation of my blood vessels, causing an increase in blood flow & overall decreasing my blood pressure. In otherwords...I was hot. Red wine is actually very healthy & beneficial for you if taken every day, in particular the heart. All this of course ONLY in moderation & in small amounts. For men, about two 5 oz. glasses/day...for women, about one 5 oz. glass a day...in concurrence with daily diet & exercise. Lowering LDLs, raising HDLs, lowering blood pressure, & preventing cancer is never a problem in my book. Just don't get addicted & avoid cirrhosis by all means.

Anyways, today went well. It was honestly a very relaxing day. Being able to get honored for service at the hospital was a wonderful feeling. On top of that, who wouldn't be happy winning a free bottle of Apothic red wine. Eagle Glen has always been a sight for sore eyes.

Returning to class seemed normal. The rain ruined my plans for a second work out today, but it still made me feel relaxed & at ease, on top of the wine & salad.

Finally, to sum up, what made my day was my brief yet exciting conversation with a special person on facebook :) It was exciting for ME of course. I've missed this good friend of mine & I was happy to have caught up, even if it wasn't for very long. Hopefully soon we get the chance to catch up much longer. Thanks for taking the time to conversate with me miss Ephraim & Gomer.

Overall...a great day. Let's keep the rest of the week that way shall we?

'Til next time.

Deuces.
