Week Ending 9/28

 Hey, it's me...

Feeling better today than I did this time last week, though not a whole lot... It been an up and down week. 

I got a lot of writing done on Wyrd Tales. I'm very near the end of writing my current story that brings with it a drive to finish. I'm about 6 chapters ahead of what's published and maybe 2-3 chapters from the end. So, that's good...

On the down side, I've been having a lot of brain fog and I've been crashing hard. It's frustrating, especially having something I really want to do and not being able to do it.

In other news, we've been experimenting with artificial sweeteners, so I can have a little something sweet from time to time. We discovered monk fruit, which is pretty good. Juno was able to make a cheesecake with it that tasted very much like my old cheesecake. It was terrific to have it again. 

Of course, there's a downside. It's that kind of week. Turns out this brand of monk fruit is mixed with something called erythritol, a sugar alcohol, which is fine expect that in some people (me) and in large enough quantities (like lots of cheesecake over the course of a week) it can cause some pretty nasty abdominal pain. Yesterday wasn't great. At the same time, once it wasn't horrible. I mean, yeah, I was in a lot of pain but I knew why and I knew I would get over it. So, despite the pain, I was actually feel pretty positive about life... which I haven't been for a while.

Honestly, I've been feeling really down lately. I'm just trying to keep going.

Onward
