I slept a little better last night. Having Hubby go to bed at the same time as me was likely a factor. Normally he's a real night owl and doesn't go to bed until 3 am. Little sleep never seems to bother him, unlike me. Also, I kept my sound machine on all night long, on rainfall mode. I know that works well. I should remember to use it more often.

Tomorrow I see my psychiatrist, after about a month. I will seize the opportunity to tell him how I've been struggling. Too often I feel "a little better" right before such visits, then under report...and regret it.

A new acquaintance we have in our new town was so generous today. She brought us a whole bunch of dried wild mushrooms, a big bag of homegrown tomatoes, two jars of her neighbor's fresh honey, some gingerbread cookies, and date bars. The tomatoes will be no problem to use up, as I'm obsessed with them. As for the honey, I'll have to come up with some new ideas. I was mentioning to Hubby that I want to figure out what to give her as a sort of gift. Something American. Though I love to bake and cook, I confess I'm a little nervous to give her something I make. She was trained professionally to work at a cukrarna (a Czech sweet-shop that sells confections). Then I thought about creating a flower arrangement. She's also good at that. What can I offer that she couldn't do as well, or better? A dance performance - LOL! No, she's very sweet. I wish I could chat with her more than I do, but the language barrier is an issue.
