Blues

  Our brief encounter with spring-like weather is over.  The temperatures have once again dropped into the single digits.  Whenever we have these fluctuations, the temperature always seems so much colder, so unbearable.  We can't get accustom to it.  Once day short sleeve shirts, the next down filled jackets.

    Still no snow, although we did have several inches of rain overnight.  The rain came through before the temperatures dropped.  The ground is hard as granite now with all that frozen water in it.  The sun finally came out today, and of course I didn't have my camera.  I feel that I have to prove that the sun does appear here in the winter after posting those gloomy CT pictures.

    I'm still very tired as I'm not sleeping at night.  Even with my medicine, I wake around 2:00am and toss and turn until the alarm goes off.  My brain won't shut off.  I'm not happy with work(big surprise, right?)so it runs through my mind during the night.  And with Dennis' illness, I've been worried about him.  I have to get over this.  I don't want to slip back into the way I felt physically a few months ago.  I had been feeling good for a while.  I'm not limping too often now either.  I suppose this could just be a bad case of post-holiday blues.

    I start back to T'ai Chi tomorrow night.  I hope that will help me to unwind.
