I know the feeling about snappy and moody - I went thru that for many years. It is not a good feeling to snap at those you care about - especially if they have done nothing to deserve it. I finally bit the bullet and lost weight, ditched the caffeine and excess salt, and signed up for the mild version of a blood pressure medicine. (It didn"t improve my lousy people-skills, but it did allow me to distinguish between those that deserved my bad side versus those who didn"t.)
Don"t buy into the remarks about 180 over 105 being moderate - it simply isn"t so. The 105 as a "resting rate" for your heart is the same number that a lot of young, healthy people have for their "working rate". I will give you the same answers that my well-respected doctor gave me:
"If you don"t make a dedicated decision to get it under control, you face the following strong possibilities":
1. Damage to your kidneys, possibly to the point of being on dialysis in the future and slowly watching your body die from the poisons of it"s own waste prducts.
2. a blow-out at a weak point in your artery-vein system and bleeding to death internally. (Kind of like dealing with over-inflating a damaged tire on your tractor.)
3. An enlarged heart from overworking it by making it pump above the recommended rates, ending up sitting in a rocking chair and awaiting the inevitable death from congestive heart failure.
I don"t want to sound too gloomy, but I can"t stand the thought of me being the only person left with "challenged people-skills! I have to do my best to help protect our endangered species.

My Dad was wanting to put in a garden but couldn't operate the 8N and handle the old horse drawn plow he had found and rigged up to use with the tractor. Well, he decided to go get Mom out of the house and have her drive the tractor while he walked behind the plow. You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o
