Oh, I wish those council guys would let me have an hour alone in the room with her, if I was larger and had grenades.

Sox, stop lending your CC to Tino.

Seriously.

Yay Bora bora! Some day I will take a vacation to somewhere warm and beachy.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I am in the doldrums. I'm not really depressed (I don't think), but I've lost all motivation. There are a few things I really need to be doing and I'm just... not. Emotionally, I seem to be stuck behind something I'm (irrationally) afraid of doing, and until I take hold of the anxiety and shove that roadblock out of my way, I won't be doing anything else either.

But in good me news, my newest BP med seems to be working and physically I'm feeling much better. Also, my doctor listened to me the last visit and ran the damn thyroid tests I've been asking for. They came back totally normal, so (a) crap, I wanted an answer, and (b) yay, my thyroid's okay. Although, getting my BP down might be starting to take care of that chronic fatigue problem I've had for lo these many years, so, maybe that's my answer.

Okay, I'm going to go do the thing now. Thanks for listening, Buffistas.

At the risk of being all Iron Loves Carrots, how are your iron levels, Zen? The difference it has made for me is extraordinary.

Yay for normal thyroids and under control blood pressure and thing-doing and nightshirts!

I'm getting out of my hating everybody mood I was in earlier today. Mostly through a liberal application of chocolate. If it works, it works.

I spectacularly failed to make mayonnaise yesterday (ingredients all over the kitchen, which made the dog happy) so today's lunch is egg salad made with avocado and mustard but no mayo. I'm liking it!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

May the time go quickly, brenda. And no problems be discovered.

Zen, that all sounds familiar. I remember well strings of whole days curled in the corner of the couch, staring at nothing. Even with the remote in my hand, I didn't have the energy or will to turn the tv on. Just...whole days gone by, not thinking, just staring.

I would say it's hard to remember now, but it's not, it's really not. I can still feel that urge, poking around the edges and trying to get in again.

So yay, you, for being vigilant and taking care of yourself. All the rest of you struggling with this, too.
