Yesterday was good, today feels even brighter. A late afternoon visit from two friends set me in the right direction, altered my mood and my perspective. I was nervous at first. Took a shower and shed my house bound attire. It was over due, but hard to accomplish when the fog is deep. Yet the old times moved right back in: relaxed banter, easy laughter, tales to weave and plans to make. It was good, very good. I felt present and relieved to hear the sound of my own voice, clear and responsive. Relieved to see their eyes reflect such easy comfort. No need to delve into my condition, plenty of new exciting things about. Wonderful, a break in the obsession, a view out a larger window. The world still spins smoothly, ants still crawl determined, I can still be strong and healthy.
Cupcakes and cookies were left by the pastry chef, my daughter proclaimed her deep undying love with each bite, the evening ended with happy exhaustion. What a good day it turned out to be. Thanks.

Great to hear you are feeling good of late. You have a wonderful attitude.
I reckon you have always been going in the right direction. You say how strong I am...You have the strength for a whole football team.
Let the good days rule!
