I should be able to write today and not be introspective. I was going to say, “annoyingly introspective,” but I’m not confident enough to make that joke. I am confident enough to reference making that joke. I need that one step of removal. That works for me. I’m not thinking of deleting all this and […]

I’m listening to We’re About 9 now so I should say, I’m “Writing Again.” I wonder what fraction of My Gentle Readers get that? There was a time it would have been most of them. I’ll explain it before finish. What’s the excitement since I last wrote? My therapy was canceled today, and I couldn’t […]
I’ll try a nighttime edition of Wise Madness. Weird day: I didn’t get much done but I had lots of things good for my mental health since I last wrote. In the space of 24 hours I spoke to Carolann, New York Carey, River, and Katrina. River and Katrina are about the same age and […]
I just did good. My therapist says I should acknowledge that. I don’t want to make the announcement here as I’m just a facilitator, but I just got the people together for a streaming show. I was going to do the tech stuff myself but realized we could afford to pay somebody who will do […]
Sorry I’ve been MIA; I’ve had Crohn’s problems since Sunday. I’ve always called it a Crohn’s attack, but my doctor doesn’t as it’s not an active inflammation, it’s an obstruction due to damage done by old flare ups. Picture the end of my small intestine, the terminal ileum, as a mass of scar tissue. Things […]
I can either write something now or call someone. As I’ll be zooming later I’ll opt for writing. The question is which is more stressful, deciding who to call or deciding what to write? This is going to be one of those, I don’t care if anyone likes it, I want to write it entries. […]

Are You Me?
There’s a new ritual in New York. At 7PM people open their windows and show their appreciation to for those on the frontlines fighting the pandemic by cheering or clapping or making some sort of noise. This spread from Wuhan, just as the virus did. In times of crisis people want to connect no matter […]
Blogging while minimalizing your time outside is not easy. I could write every day, I sat in my recliner and watched TV but that would soon get old. I do cheat and tell you what I ate and who I spoke to, or is that who I ate and what I spoke to? No, for […]
I lucked out. I have to leave the house today to pick up a prescription and it’s a beautiful day. I will take a long walk and get exercise. I just have to figure out where to walk. You’ll find that out when I write tomorrow. I’ll continue to be good and keep updating. I […]

Let’s Go to the COVIDEO
I surprised my therapist by asking how the hospital is preparing for COVID-19? She said I was the last patient she’d think was worried about that. I’m not germophobic and medical issues are the one thing I have less anxiety about than most people. I’m not afraid of getting COVID-19 and picturing me or my […]
