I've been doing almost nothing, lately. I barely want to leave my bedroom, other than to cook something and eat. I had a productive session with my therapist yesterday. I think he now knows the majority of my situation. I think I like him and that he's good at his job. I feared that online therapy would not be as good as in-person. Clearly that's not so, in some cases.
My interactions with my sister have been more soft brief chat. She knows that I'm unwell and avoids the other stuff. I'm glad. I need this break, but of course I know I must again face more life realities soon.
It's been raining a lot, for days, after drought conditions. I like that not just for our outdoor plants' health, but the sound of it. We had new metal gutters added that make the sound of the rain emphasized. It's like my sound machine, relaxing me, and prolonging my sleep. Beautiful!
