lunabee341. goss drew me the most wonderful drawing of birds and a fountain pen and a birdhouse made of notebooks. Check out the other drawings she's done thus far for More Joy Day.
2. My sister-in-law's mother died last night. I feel so terrible for her. I can't imagine losing my mother in my thirties. I'm waiting to hear on funeral arrangements so I can make travel plans.
3. This weekend has been very chill. I haven't had anything to do, so I've been reading bell hooks and poetry and a bookaphrodite_mine sent me.
4. The neuro is tapering me off gabapentin and replacing it with Cymbalta. I am just so exhausted all the time, and the gabapentin is making me more fatigued. Hopefully the Cymbalta will control the pain just as well as the gabapentin, and if I get a little bonus depression/anxiety help, that will be lovely. *crosses fingers*

Date: 2022-01-18 11:21 am (UTC)I agree with you re: closeness. It hurts more, but there's more joy there, too.
I am really hoping for the Cymbalta to work! It's too soon to tell, but it doesn't seem to be doing anything horrible, so that's good. LOL
