Hey gang, me again…
Nothing really earthshaking on the FP front, but just some niggling things.
Been feeling a bit down in the dumps lately. I don’t think it’s full on depression (been there done that got the T-shirt), more of a situational thing. The news from DC how we came thisclose to a full-on coup, the maskholes and anti-vaxxers sending Delta skyrocketing (including a return to wearing masks indoors even if fully vaccinated here in my retirement community), the Western US burning down all around me, and just general loneliness. Aaaand if life couldn’t throw me any additional curve balls, I find out today that a friend of mine here had a heart attack, and will be in the hospital for about a month getting a triple bypass. Ack!
I have a doctor’s appointment on the 17th (going in for my standard lab work this Tuesday; my dear friend Henry is tagging along since he also needs to get lab work done and I must say I’ll enjoy the company), so if I’m still dealing with issues I might ask her if she thinks I should talk to the mental health folks. It feels like it’s mostly situational, and if I could just have a good long cry I’d be able to sort things out.
This too shall pass…
So, how’s life by you?
