How is it almost Christmas already?!
Dec. 17th, 2023 01:41 pm I've been meaning to write a post, it's just that I don't have anything real to say right now. I continue to tread water and keep swimming. Yesterday I had a bad mental health day and texted Todd (Scott was away traveling), who frets about the psychological load I am carrying with regards to health/work/family stuff. I dutifully go to my therapist each week, but the reality is that I am Not Good about emotional vulnerability and it is what it is.
At least we can stay home for the holidays this year. I have a doctor's appointment on the 27th for an ultrasound to make sure I don't have any blockages or anything before my next round of stuff, since I haven't had one of those in a while (I was clear last time, so knock wood).
Currently reading the Dutli biography of Osip Mandelstam, because while super depressed reading stuff about Soviet dissident writers who get sent off to die in the Gulag ... provides perspective? Or something?
