How lovely. I like that you are there :)
 
136% of my goal steps (almost 7k) plus some. I figured out the anti-inflammatory was causing migraines and i think depression. Been off it 3 days and feel nearly normal again except my feet and hands are screaming. But I can manage that pain if it means no ideation. Also ate fresh food today for lunch. I stopped by the farmers market before heading back north to the mountain. I very much miss the cool diversity of people in the city. But the peaceful connection to nature is doing me so much good.
 
5lb down from a few days ago. Wonders what the correct meds and decent nutrition will do. I'm winging my dosage as I can't get in to the doc until next week. Bp is still high but not extreme.

Driving 5 hours tomorrow to hopefully buy a couch. I was thinking of buying one for $4k. Came home and saw exact couch for sell for $700 used. Hoping it works out. Also getting hair cut. I hate getting my hair cut.

Selfie stick arrived. Never thought I would own a selfie stick. This weekend it's tackling Blue Mountain I think. Gotta go get fitted for shoes first. I may get two pair...one w my ankle brace and one with just socks.
 
I can't wait to set up my camera on the deck when the rain ends to snap all the jays..

I was a coward and didn't get my hair cut. Did drive to pickup the couch but didn't get it. He had retouched the photos I think.
 
Oh that sucks about the couch!
Things not working out is one thing, but if there's deception (retouched photos), that's an intentional attempt to deceive :\
 
That is a shame about the couch. Often things do not look as good as they do in photos, even without being touched up. I love getting my hair cut. I always feel full of energy & positivity afterwards, much more than I expect. I love having short hair.
 
Had a nightmare Peri had been killed by research scientists. Then my former therapist called as I was waking up and said she was going to reinstitute boundaries. Which I am actually thankful for but it also feels like abandonment. So totally ambivalent today. (She was planning on coming up to hike & kayak).

Did I mention I hate my job lately? On a conference call right now.
 
I think you are smart enough to know that your therapist probably had overstepped her boundaries & she must have realised that. It isn't abandonment. Are you going hiking this weekend? Can you start looking for a better job? We spend such a large part of our lives at work. How good would it be to love your job?
 
Intellect and emotion are two separate things for me. I've known the therapist for 18 years. I knew she'd reset at some point but still....I was just adjusting to the new stuff. I'll be fine. Just was expressing feelings in the moment.

Hiking a short loop tomorrow after WW meeting. It's an hour drive but it is easy-moderate instead of difficult like all the trailheads around here. 400 year old trees. Doesn't sound astounding but that they survived the clear cutting of the late 19th early 20th centuries is amazing. The trees here now are not the same type of trees that filled the mountainsides in the 1860s.

Need to get hiking shoes. My trail shoes have a hole in the bottom but not sure I'm going to Franklin tomorrow.

Condo closing got moved to Friday. That means 3 days of trips into the city next week.
 
The hike was not 'easy' but it was awesome! Those trekking poles are a life saver. I didn't wear my ankle brace but it did fine until the drive home so hoping I won't need it overall. I scrambled up rocks, climbed over fallen trees, forged creeks and mud pits. 75 minutes to go up and down a small mountain. Total fun. And the old growth trees simply added extra magic.

Resting. And oh. Down from 271.4 on Tuesday to 264 today. Amazing what the right medsand IF will do for your body.
