Hello all! I’ve been up all night but I feel pretty good. I have a feeling my SAD has been in abeyance because my daughter has been in town and because it’s been sunny and mild. I guess I’ll know after the 8th. We’ve had a great time just hanging out taking walks, cooking together, watching sunsets and talking.

My family has asked me to request a referral to have my memory tested. I’ve had increasing memory problems and it makes me uneasy. I think it’s either medicine or stress related. Whatever it is, I don’t like it. I have a brain health program from Dr. Daniel Amen that I’ve been meaning to do but I’ll now make a priority. I understand meditation has many benefits including adding volume to critical areas of the brain. I already do that but I’ll bump it up.

I’ve been blessed enough to be able to stay in during the pandemic but I’m surely looking forward to getting my vaccination and getting back out there. I know it will be several months. There was over a 5 hour long wait for folks my mom’s age and many got turned away.

Hugs to all who are struggling.
