and this is why. MUTTS struck me today, because I feel exhausted and wish to hibernate. All’s well; some days are just like that, you know? 🥱 🙂
(This is nice; it’s the rest of the MUTTS email.)

I can do box breathing, but it takes more effort to do properly than I want to expend if I want to settle to sleep. This idea is the very thing, though! A person can do it any time; I did it for the little bit of time it takes to read MM’s post, and lowered my heart rate 3 BPM. It’s great!
Hi all. For two days I have worked on a couple posts. Never seeming able to get to the end of them. I get up at 2 or early and work on the Male Survivor site, then I have an hour or more long audio call with a fellow survivor, then I go to Joe My God to collect memes and see if there are stories I should post. In between there is the morning walk with Ron, feeding and cleaning up after cats, and doing home stuff. After showering I notice most of the morning is gone. During The Majority Report which comes on at noon and runs for 2 or 3 hours, I turn the monitor around and put on headphones and do the dishes, a job that takes me about two hours. Then another check in with the person I had the audio call with. Then supper. I realize the day went by without me being able to check my blog, without reading what Ali and Randy posted, not even time to reply to comments before I am struggling to stay awake and end up going to bed. That doesn’t include the days my pain or exhaustion doesn’t require me to go lay down. Get up far too early only to do it all again.
So last night before going to bed I put all the comments I could find in open tabs. I am going to work on them now. But I know some passed the last few days I did not see. If you had something you wanted to say to me and I did not reply, please send it again even on a different thing I post. Remember I do not see comments on Ali’s or Randy’s posts unless I go to the post page. I do care about the blog, I do love the comments. I am simply severely trying to do too much and deal with personal issues also. I have to cut something and concentrate on what is important, which is Ron, the blog, and you all. As I have taken to saying lately, far more than I ever thought I would, I care about you, I care for you. Ron wants me to watch more movies and TV shows like Piccard, wants us to go out to eat, wants us to spend more time together. All of these will eat into my online time. I have some thinking to do, and right now thinking is sometimes hard for me. Best wishes. Hugs. Scottie
