My exhausting gratitude of this day would be the farm projects I am working this week. It is highly speculative work. The facts are still coming together, so I work with zero certainty that my labor will produce anything sustainable, but I am learning something new every day.

Here in week four the physical exercise has me feeling constructo buff once more. Guess I oughta monitor that one, huh? Injuries from over-confidence are allot rougher on a 62 year old body than a 40 year old body.

Glad to hear about your dog. For me, speaking at a church yesterday was rewarding for the feedback afterward. A group of us went out for Chinese food afterward and chatted all afternoon until 4:30pm. It was really great to share in conversation and support for that long.

I'm grateful for music. That's like the biggest thing that helps me. Oh, and my huge bed I have all to myself. It's quite nice.

    Which explains the mysterious fevers and my extra fatigue. I'm so glad I pushed for answers.

    Due to my increased paranoia, anxiety, and a panic attack over the weekend, my psychiatrist has put me back in a full dose of Zyprexa until further notice. Every time I think I'm getting ahead something happens and it's back to square one. I knew he was gonna do this but I can't help feeling disappointed. It is what it is.
