Light bulb now on. I now realize I have been experiencing some mood fluctuations these past few days. Hubby has started cluing me in. They've mostly been on the passionate to slightly rageful "up" end. Yup. Maybe a PRN and mindfulness practice. I can't let this escalate with my psychiatrist in the hospital and scheduled for his annual long summer vacation in Martha's Vineyard. That is assuming that he might still go, after the hospitalization. I definitely don't want to be among his patients in some level of crisis.

I am sitting on my deck on a lovely, but slightly hot day after an al fresco lunch. Hubby is literally sleeping in a chair at the deck table. Lunch was good, but not great. Artichoke raviolis with sautéed onion, Brussels sprouts, and carrot with grated Parmesan cheese. Needed some herb. Homemade iced tea with fresh mint from my garden. Hubby had a glass of rosé wine from Provence.

A hummingbird visited a few minutes ago, but I am unsure who it was. I am not wearing my glasses. We have three regular visitors this year that we've named Midori (an especially green female), You You (a friendly female), and a pretty male we call Lazy Ladislav because he comes and sits for an especially long time on a branch near the hummingbird feeder, waiting for the females to chase.
