(health, garden, observe, depression)

I see the doctor today for an annual and, well, will it be burnt out bitter doctor i saw for the CPAP prescription or cheerful "you are healthy" doctor who doesn't seem to get the drain of chronic irritation?

I dug up some of the sweetpotatoes in the gloom last evening. I think i should be trying to get them out of the ground before i go to Denver on Sunday as, in my absence, the weather will be rain rain and rain. Christine should be delighted and eased by that weather. We need it, but i think it won't be good for the sweetpotates, now officially with no space since they are not potatoes. Perhaps i should use the word from other languages, batatas.

Our tree went up on Sunday, and yesterday we put up the Moravian star. THe bulb blew as we turned it on, so we've put one of those "smart" bulbs with multicolor capabilities in it. Christine is trying the app again and maybe it's better this time. The firmware has had upgrades so there are dynamic light modes to use.

I did all my exercises yesterday, including the 15 min on the bike. I miss spending time on the internet, but i want to age like my dad's mother and have mobility as long as possible. First step is getting balance back.

I was in a dark place last night. Not sure i'm better this morning or whether it's just the general better-in-the-morning pattern. The dark place will pass if it's not gone already.
