Update

 OK, I can't really call it a break anymore.  It started as one, but was caused by medical issues.  I don't want to go into detail since I have no final diagnosis yet, but it is a "rest of my life" problem.  I'm old enough to have issues like that developing.

The consequences are both physical and psychological.  Physical in that sitting and typing is uncomfortable.  It is hard enough just to get out of bed in the morning and I return to bed often during the day (meals and just moving around for light housework make me tired).

Psychological in that I seem to have little creativity or motivation these days.  I just don't do what I used to.  It's not dementia, just the "Blahs" all day long.  I think of something I want to do, and then I just don't do it.

I hope this malaise goes away soon, but until it does, I won't be posting much or at all.  I hope to try for some posting.  But I just don't know what the future will bring...

And please, let's not make this a big "thoughts and prayers" thing.  Not my style.

I came out of hibernation long enough to drop by and say hi. Hope the blahs go away soon. Getting old is hard work.

I am sorry you are not feeling so good lately and hope things improve. Whoever said growing old is not for sissies certainly got that right! It is good to hear from you again even if it is only to know you are still in the land of the living.

So glad to hear from you, but not so glad to hear you are in the doldrums and having medical issues. I sincerely hope things improve for you soon.
