It's been awhile I know

Nearly a month to be exact. And it's not be because I haven't had anything to say, because there has been been plenty. I just haven't been motivated.

I've been going through a terrible funk lately. At first I thought it was the weather, but I'm beginning to discount that. We did have a few cold days in December and January, but February is proving to be pretty nice (for February that is). And if you listen to the news at all, you know there hasn't been much rain here in LA for quite awhile

I can't blame it on the iron either, since I stopped taking that. There is still the Lipitor to blame, but I'm not about to stop taking it just yet.

Plus I finally got my cataract surgery scheduled for March 10th, so I should be happy, but on the downside, my lymphocyte count has been steadily increasing over the past few months, almost back to its peak of around 4 years ago.

So here I sit, looking for some sympathy I suppose, and hoping it's not my MCL starting to rear its ugly head.

BIG SIGH!

Know the feeling well, to quote Mandela, Gandhi, Dalai Lama, etc..... "Put one foot after the other and keep moving"
It may be of little comfort, but it sometimes works for me!?! Oh, of course sympathy in abundance....

All words of encouragement are appreciated, especially when they come from across the pond.

I think I'll go buy a new bike tomorrow. That should get me moving. :)

It won't fit you. Remember you're taller than me.

History IS repeating itself

I didn't grow up during the rise and fall of Hitler and Nazi Germany, so for me to claim it feels like those are the times we are living in now, must be taken with a grain of salt. But I have seen enough movies, and read enough history to know, if the times we're living in now are not akin to the rise of a Nazism and Facism in Europe in the 1930's and 1940's, then we're not far off. If you can't see the parallels with Nazi Germany, then you must be living in a different country than me. Republicans and other right wing extremists will stop at nothing to subvert the will of the majority, forcing their beliefs, that they are the superior race and have been appointed by God, to impose their will on America, while they blame all our problems on immigrants, blacks and Jews. As I speak, Mitch McConnell, and his minions are raising roadblocks to all legislation designed to help average Americans under the guise of fiscal responsibility. They condone violent and verba...

Stop the stupidity!

Rural medical center (in Georgia) suspended from vaccination program after inoculating school district staff. Give me a break! Trying to get kids back to school, while protecting teachers, bus drivers and other staff, is exactly what school districts should be doing. If they have vaccines, give them out. We should be giving out vaccines to all who want them, whenever available. Trying to adhere to rigid guidelines will only result in fewer people getting vaccines, resulting in the discarding of precious vaccines, and less protection for everyone. Of course we should be giving first priority to healthcare workers, and any other essential public service employees, such as policeman, fireman, etc. first, but when they're not around to receive shots, or refuse shots, then give them to anyone willing to take them. What I would have objected to is the medical center trying to capitalize on the pandemic to make a profit, from giving vaccines to people far down the list of recipients, but ...

Fatigue! Part II - Maybe it is real?

Or it's actually Motivational Deficiency Disorder, MoDeD (pronounced Mo-Dee-Dee) for short. In a report this week by Roy Moynihan who reports for the British Medical Journal Austrailian scientists may have come across the reason for extreme laziness . The condition is claimed to affect up to one in five Australians and is characterised by overwhelming and debilitating apathy. Neuroscientists at the University of Newcastle in Australia say that in severe cases motivational deficiency disorder can be fatal, because the condition reduces the motivation to breathe. Neurologist Leth Argos is part of the team that has identified the disorder, which can be diagnosed using a combination of positron emission tomography and low scores on a motivation rating scale, previously validated in elite athletes. "This disorder is poorly understood," Professor Argos told the BMJ. "It is underdiagnosed and undertreated." Who knew? Maybe I have MoDeD, from my attempts to become a...
