I haven't written much here about myself for a few days simply because there's been little to report. Perhaps the depression I'd been developing is easing. The extra 25 mg of Lamictal? Placebo effect? Or something else or a combo? Doesn't matter, in the end. But I'm still wondering if I could go up to 150 mg. For one thing, I think there is a 150 mg pill, which would be better than needing two pills to make 125 mg. Also, just a little "higher" would be mighty nice. Maybe that would motivate me to do things I've been avoiding.
Still cooking, as usual. I made a kick butt homemade granola the other day. Best granola I've ever had! Today I am making homemade chicken broth for a chicken veggie orzo soup, for Hubby. He's had a sore throat for a few days and complained this morning that his chest felt funny. He did an at home covid 19 test and it came back negative. I seriously doubted he had covid. We are extremely careful in public (#1), barely go out in public (#2), have been fully vaccinated, plus it's allergy season coming which means respiratory issues for many people. I, myself, have been sneezing up a storm. Really, right now in CZ it's like autumn has arrived. Chilly, at times. Hopefully the soup will ease some of his discomfort. Right now the whole house is full of the aroma.
