December 17

I wasn’t terribly hungry today, but I didn’t have any problems eating, and I (dutifully) ate my normal meals and snacks, and I feel okay. In the morning I spoke to my brother and then to my sister.  Those calls always buoy me up enormously.

I did some work online and some chores (getting the gift envelopes ready for the building staff, doing some cleaning in the kitchen).  Tomorrow, if I have the energy, I’ll try to bake something.  I was restless this afternoon and almost did it then, but it was late enough by the time I was ready that the baking would have impinged on dinner preparation, so I postponed it.

I think it’s probably good that I got restless– a sign that I could have been doing more.  But I didn’t, and that’s okay too.
