Today was up and down, so not too bad. I was happy when i tried washing my hair at the kitchen sink and it worked out fine so i'm not chained to the shower anymore. I also had a nice time outside playing with a Beagle puppy -- so cute! My second attempt at my annual blood test did not go well tho. There was over a two hour wait again so i didn't stay. But then i happened upon a restaurant with a favorite meal so i went in on a whim and had it. So nice to have the freedom to do such things. I got some meds tho there was a bit of a fuss which tried my patience but i just told myself to stay calm and it was for the best as they finally found it and i was on my way still on good terms with the staff. I tested my blood pressure for the first time in six months and it was not bad which is a relief as i've been worried about all the inertia sending it skyrocketing. I saw a neighbor at the mall and true to my new policy i did not stop and chat. I skipped my ZOOM social hour too. Since i got home i've been flattened by boredom tho but trying to be grateful for the good moments today.

I still feel mildly depressed, but life goes on, i just have to live with it. It's not a barrel of laughs but i have many blessings.
