Antidepression

 





Another balcony shot - it is really flourishing this year. It has been a hot and humid summer, but we have had some much needed rain recently, and our sea breeze seems to have returned. Tuesday afternoon I did very little, tired I guess by a bad night and my root canal horror in the morning.

Hopefully my dentist did a good job, as despite nearly an hour of horrors in the chair, I have had no after pain... for which I am very grateful.  But that anti-depressant med I am taking - for reasons of physical health in that I am not clinically depressed - is affecting me very badly, even though it is low dosage.  And with no sign of it yet fixing the problem with my skin.

I guess I have to persevere.

But what would it be like to be on a high dosage? Zombification?

We heard that Keith and Co are coming over Sunday night to watch The Match - Footie, ladies, England v Italy (I think).  I shall do what I usually do these days when we entertain - i.e. a sandwich lunch, with cake and ice-cream for afters, but have it in the evening.

We used to entertain a lot when we were younger. But not now.  For one thing we no longer have a dining table - it is a computer work station these days. But we also no longer have the energy.

And writing this makes me realise that I need to go and make the Captain's sandwiches for tomorrow, as he will be leaving very early for The Field.

I will end with  Psalm 16:11, as the more I think about what it promises, the more it cheers me up: 
You make known to me the path of life.
In your presence is abundant joy;
There is happiness at your right hand forever.

What more could any of us want? And Jehovah is offering this abundant happiness to everyone.
