I am back,at least for now

Good morning journal,the time is 11:23am,I am awake,and I am back,at least for now.The past few days,my physical health has dictated that I have been unable to visit here,my inability to remain in one place for too long,resulting in me having to move frequently to alleviate my discomfort,has proved both troublesome and tiring.My breathing has improved enough to function without over use of my inhalers,which is encouraging,but my thirst continues to be a source of annoyance,and my lips are cracked and dry,despite the frequent intake of liquid.I have noticed a quietening of my mood,and I feel more in control than I have been of late,which is all good;but I am aware that a swing in my emotional and mental state could,and can occur,very swiftly and with little or no warning.This morning,I am in a more positive frame of mind,able to actually smile a little,which is a rare occurrence,but ever so welcome nonetheless,and,I'm sure,a relief to my wife,who has soldiered on regardless,in her usual "mother hen" fashion,looking after me and our canine children heroically and without complaint.The whispers in my mind have been largely silent over the past few days,save only for the odd interruption from Jeremiah,who can be both loud and persistent in his instructions and advice,whilst Michael and Ruth have said very little,but I have been,and still am,aware of their presence within my inner being.
    I am gratified beyond belief at the continued concern and love shown by my friends here,proving once again,that there is still a lot of humanity in the world we share today,this morning that makes me feel really hopeful for the future;another bonus indeed.Well journal,it is enough for this visit lest I tire myself too much,but I have enjoyed this dalliance with you,as always,and I may have some news on a project I am considering later this week,watch this space as they say,till tomorrow then,peace be with us.
