Another June is being wasted by damned clouds & storms. This morning has been aggressively hazy. The neighbors were loud this morning & the humidity is still high. It's supposed to storm more tonight. Like we needed that.
June 2026, you are sucking. When did this month become nearly the darkest of year? There's more light later in the day, but most of it is still dreary.
Besides waking achy & dehydrated, that's my gripe for this morning. Take care.

It's been more of things I didn't want; storms, aches, allergies, low blood pressure, off sleep & BS. I'm tired & achy. Allergies, low blood pressure & dehydration have wrecked my head. It was noisy this morning, another thing screwing with my sleep.
It's been DST since Sunday & there's been precious little daylight during that time. Even with all these bouts of rain & storms, we're still short on our rainfall average. So far 2026 has been a little dry.
That's it for now, take care.

The nights have had soaring humidity levels. This has caused my feet to swell. It's been rough keeping my feet in good shape this season. After all that, I wake up dehydrated. Oh well, that's the time of year. It'd be nice if the humidity & ragweed died down some.
For me, at least, today's mostly a nothing day. My roomie has an appointment in town. That may or may not develop into more on the the to-do list. But for now, my day looks fairly easy. Maybe that'll hold.
That's all for now, take care.

The weather & light are changing. Last night's alleged rain never showed. The air's heavy & wet. From everything already going on this week, this morning & ragweed; I feel like I've been dehydrated & pounded out. It's dark this morning & won't get sunny today. I doubt I feel much better later, maybe tomorrow.
Darker, wetter, chillier, allergy ridden are all good descriptors of recent days. I didn't ask for any of that. Again, I hate Fall, it only leads to Winter.
That's all for now, take care.

Hate to stick to a theme this long, but these dark, overcast mornings are still trashing me. It's hard to wake up. Combined with the odd weather & it's leading to me being dehydrated. I'm still having low morning blood pressure as well. Tomorrow is supposed to be sunny, I hope so. As it is now, I don't really feel awake up until past noon. Before that I'm just drudging along.
That's all I've got for now, take care.

I wasn't doing that great yesterday & then a sudden change in weather knocked me back further. There was an unexpected storm that caused the power to blip. It brought a lot of wind & rain. It dumped over an inch in a few hours.
It was dark when I woke up. I'm trying to completely wake up, but being dehydrated isn't helping. My blood pressure is low again. That will settle down when this weather does, so who knows when.
The weather's looking iffy for a ways out. Hopefully, the last bit of April goes well. That's it for now. Take care.

We're at the time of year when the temps can't figure out where they want to be & getting comfortable can be challenging. There's tons of pollen & the winds are blowing debris, so allergies are acting up. I need to crank up the water, it might help me to not wake up so dehydrated & achy.
Today is a shopping day & we'll stop by the pharmacy as well. I think that's about it for us. I just need to get over this morning's cough fits & stuffy nose beforehand.
That's it for now, take care.
Cya...
It's storming again & probably will be until Sunday. This weather is being really hard on me. I'm waking dehydrated & sore. It's been hard trying to really wake up in this drear. My blood pressure has been low until later in the day & that makes me feel pretty off.
We need the rain, but the storms can go elsewhere. I need the sun to shine, not all this gloom. We have some errands later. Maybe the rain will let up for a bit.
That's it for now, take care.

I had a bad wake up this morning. It was dark & humid. I did jolt awake & then just sat there sort of vibrating trying to figure out everything. SAD is still playing out for me & the stress of the month has taken its toll.
I was anxious about everything; the house, the car, my roomie, the mailbox, the cats, etc... The problem is not all of is without cause. When this happens, I can't get myself to let go & just breathe for a moment.
I haven't had that many of these wakeups this year, but any is too much. They're exhausting & consuming. Too bad, the rest of the month & the beginning of April look to be some dark BS.
My blood pressure's a little low this morning & I'm dehydrated. I'll start feeling better in a bit. Even so, this sucks & everything I'm worrying about could be a problem. I don't know & I'm all out of energy & tricks.
Mornings suck, especially when they're dark.

Even though it's been warmer, this hasn't been an easy week for me. There has been so much tree cutting & trimming, allergens are creeping back up & there's been a lot of wind. These things are killing my sinuses.
It's been warm enough at night that I'm having to juggle cover levels. I'm waking too warm & dehydrated. It's tanking my blood pressure in the morning.
Harder than that though is the lack of light. My SAD issues can creep in quick these days. It's been rough & the remainder of this week is supposed to be dreary.
That's all for now, take care.

It was warm yesterday, 70s. It was a little too warm to sleep the way my bed is currently made for Winter. It could be near 80 today. This week will continue to be unseasonably warm & then next it'll dive back into normal. Some nights will be under freezing.
I woke dehydrated & my blood pressure was low. It'll even out as I get around & get hydrated. But, next week is going to be even harder on me when we get cold again.
It's 1st of the month time. So, we have shopping, errands & bills this morning. Other than that, it should be a normal Monday.
Take care.

The overnights are still too blasted hot & humid. With the fans, it's like we're trying to dehydrate ourselves into jerky. It isn't fun. This crap will be here until Sunday. Again, there was no good month, or even full week, in my birth year. This was 90% suckfest, 3% horror show, 3% meh, 3% OK & 1 lousy percent good.
The only thing we really have on the list today it going to pick up meds. Other than that, there's taking trash out. Then it's inside for the duration.

I woke up feeling out of it. The thing they don't tell you about blood pressure is that low can be hell as well. I normally only have to deal with it during the warmer months. Then I can waking up groggy & dehydrated. I'm not sure if the low pressure leads to it or vice versa. Either way, until I'm very hydrated again, I feel like crap.
That happened this morning & I nearly forgot to post anything. Take care.

We've been having a lot of rainy patches the last week or so. It's been very humid, then very dry. My body's not liking a bit. My feet are prone to swelling during weather like this, usually nothing too bad. The worst thing for me is the morning dehydration. Nighttime storms during warmer weather often leave me dried out when I wake. The last couple of mornings, I've woke to nosebleeds from my nasal passages being too dried out. This morning's wasn't too bad, still it was unwanted & required some clean up.
This kind of weather can also lead to gout flare ups. I can't do much about weather conditions, but I can try to make sure I don't give any additional causes for a gout occurence. For the rest of it, the best I can do is to stay hydrated.
That's all for now, take care.

My sleep has been off since this sick thing started. Even though I'm getting better, the weather & allergies are being extreme & weird. I'm having low grade fevers at night as I'm getting through this crap. When I wake up, I'm overheated & dehydrated. It can be nauseating. It takes me a bit to get back to normal. This isn't the type of heat like when you're out in the Summer time. That comes from the outside. This is from the inside. I need this crap gone & for the weather to calm down. Like I can control any of that.
Cya...
Shopping had to be postponed a day. But I think I can handle a small today. I'm still not great & there's some coughing. The worst part is the ache & soreness post coughing. I'm dehydrated & need to figure out something I can easily eat.
That's about it for now. Hopefully this goes smoothly. Take care.

Besides normal errands, the van has to be taken to the mechanic shop. I need to go shopping & handle car insurance as well. Hopefully, we can handle all of our tasks before it gets too hot.
I'm sleeping alright, but waking is another thing. I'm staying dehydrated in the mornings. Between the heat & fans, we're making jerky.
That's all for now, take care.

It's dark this morning. It's been threatening rain all week. It's done a little. The weather has stayed fairly miserable. Not quite too warm, but very close. The humidity is annoying. I'm waking up stiff, allergy ridden & dehydrated. April is seriously sucking.
It's dark enough I had to turn on another light to compensate. Of course Windows had to update this morning. To make matters worse, I woke to some asshat mowing. The sky's dark & rumbling, but they just have to mow. I know sometimes people need to mow in the mornings. But I still think people who do are assholes.
So not a good morning & probably not a great day. We'll handle trash later & maybe some errands. Take care.

Summer issues are here. These mornings often find me very dehydrated. I don't sleep as deep during the Summer & wake up a lot easier. The fans & heat are basically trying to turn me into jerky. By morning, I'm parched. It takes a while to get rehydrated & feel somewhat normal again.
Next topic, I've lost most the blogs I follow. When I started blogging, I followed a few dozen. Most of those are gone. Under a dozen still stand. Less than half of those post semi-regularly. While only a couple post often. A blogger posted a message she was retiring her blog. She'd moved on to other formats. I don't blame her, but there goes another thing I enjoyed. I have means of following some of these other people still, but it's not the same. They may be prettier & more professional, but the soul's gone. Blogger may end someday & then I'll have to make a decision about my blog. Do I allow an ending or move somewhere else? I don't know.

I didn't feel well yesterday. I woke up dehydrated & never really got over it. I went to bed early for me. At least that gave me a bit of a boost for this morning. The time changed last night & we sprang forward an hour. That'll mean more afternoon light.
I meant to write about having COVID arm. It seems the vaccine, mostly Moderna, is giving people a rash or redness about a week after the shot. The bumpy rash lasted about a day. It's still pinkish around the site. The skin feels a little thick. If that's the worse I get from it, I can handle that.
Stimulus checks are rolling out. Some people have already got them. Even if the money doesn't solve every issue, it at least lets people know that some do care about what they're going through. Here's hoping COVID ends soon.
Take care.
