Our wings are not tired.

I do hope you will see good results soon.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Wow, Epic, that sounds like kind of an ordeal but so fascinating! I hope it does what it is supposed to do.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Big claustrophobia yikes.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

All of that! Yikes!

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Tim’s ultrasound is all clear. We’re waiting to see if the doctor wants to prescribe a diuretic. And then we’re getting Mediterranean food for lunch.

Big claustrophobia yikes.

It was a problem my first few "dives". Thankfully, one of the attendants recommended bringing sudoku (up to that point I had just been bringing a book) and that engages just enough more of the mind that it got me over the hump to where I have a much easier time of it now. Also, finding that one of my watches was rated to 30 meters (we only "go" to 45 feet) so I can wear it in the chamber was a godsend. The sense of time gets a little wonky so it helps to be able to keep an eye on it for myself.

Yay for clot-free Tim! Enjoy your lunch! (Mediterranean sounds good!)

It says something's about me that my response.to that was, "Good. Good. BRILLIANT!"

I mean, I think it says that I like Mediterranean food a lot, but... priorities?

I think my last one was 21. So I'm just over halfway done. The good news is that everyone says that the second half (of the 40 treatments) is when you really start to see results. So hopefully I'll be seeing some improvement soon

Good and yes to that!

We continue to get physical snail mail, and her inbox continues to fill up with AO3 comments to her great delight.

The package from Fay came yesterday, as well as a lovely painting from Stitch, and card from vw. Emily Stuckey's card came and mail just brought a card from ChiKat.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

USPS tracking very helpfully informs me that my package will arrive later than expected and that it is somewhere between here and there.
