return of the wayward blogger

I've been tired, and probably a little depressed.  Not too badly, just wanting to stay in bed and read, which makes me more tired if I don't get to the pool.  I did get there for 10 minutes yesterday, and did walk this morning, but just not my usual.  I feel much more balanced again today after the meeting at the clinic.  Everyone there commented that they wish there was a more gradual taper to the meetings, but it is what it is, and I will attend every opportunity I get.

My visit with Bernie went very well and he is moving on with some new adventures.  We had a great visit and I will send our agreement back to the lawyer to finalize.  I'm happy for him and still sad that we couldn't make a go of it.

I think the other thing affecting me is living in some chaos at the house.  I am slowly moving and transforming, deciding what I need and where I need it, what I need to get rid of and where to.  I want it done now, though!  I do love being downstairs and once everything is in place, it will be wonderful. It just seems like a long process.  I'm having trouble finding storage cabinets and hope to try IKEA as they seem like my best shot.  I found it hard to believe Home Depot or Rona didn't have anything, but they really don't

Thank you to those who noticed I was MIA and reached out to me.  I really appreciate the support and I commit to being more diligent about the getting to the Y and reaching out for support.  It remains my biggest challenge.

Love, elly
