I Got (some) Things Done -- exercises every day, and singing every day except Tuesday and yesterday. Tuesday I took Desti and Ticia to the vet, which definitely counts as a Thing. So does the walk I took yesterday morning. Nevertheless there's a lot more that I'm not doing, which is worrisome.

Some of the exercises (from my PT appointment Friday before last) started hurting my knees last Sunday, so I've been doing far fewer of those, and appear to be recovering. Which is more than I can say for my mental health. I think it's only slightly about losing Colleen -- I can deal with that. It's mostly anticipatory grief over having to sell the house on Whidbey Island, and for the impending death of American democracy at the hands of the Repugnant Party and their Supreme Kangaroo Court.

I've had several grief/anxiety/whatever attacks over the last week -- the one this morning was the worst. It had me curled up in bed shaking for over an hour; breathing exercises and cat cuddles, but... I'm probably still not completely over it.

In the links, The Universe Is Not Locally Real, and the Physics Nobel Prize Winners Proved It (more detail Friday). And if you need several hours of pleasant rabbit-holing, there's the Complete Catalogue of the Painting of Johannes Vermeer.

Notes & links, as usual )
