That’s an inspired suggestion @lindisfel . I guess that being an SSRI, you get serotonin spike tickling your pineal to make melatonin and perhaps reset your sleep wake cycle - but just a guess.

I guess that being an SSRI, you get serotonin spike tickling your pineal to make melatonin and perhaps reset your sleep wake cycle - but just a guess.The better half was talking to a friend last night on the phone about our surgery often has a no show of doctors and the rural practice at Kirkbride has five doctors. We had a large and very competent practice rated one of the highest in the N.W. now it is very difficult to see a GP. One could nearly say it is nurse practitioner led and they may be good but are limited.
A case in point I was having trouble with my tablets, our eldest is up for the week trying to sort us out, as they do. I ask her and she said why don't you move your sertraline to just before
bedtime, which I have done.
Now I sleep properly and I feel better in the day.
I would never have dreamt of doing such a change.
I keep a tight rein of things because I know advice can creep over the boundary to control.
Self battering fish - straight from the chip shop.This morning a reading of 6.1
In the night I had dream it was of fish with bludgeons they were only small fish so their bludgeons were small not much more than matchsticks but I assure you their intention was to batter someone.
I am liking this bamboo ink dippers series very much....Good morning everyone on a quiet and calm start to the day here in the dark and dangerous north. 5.4 this am. ‘Twas the day before bin day and all through the house…. Today is a day of unknowns - ish. Nothing on the planner, which is nice. I can catch up on some reading. Art bit - more playing about with the bamboo ink dippers. Hope your day is fulfilling for you. Must be time for some koffy.

Thank you @ianpspursGood morning all on the feast of St Nicolas of Myra/Bari which allegedly became celebrated as Sinterklaas by the Dutch who took the custom with them to New Amsterdam in the American colonies. In time it became Santa Claus and allegedly Fred Mitzen and Coca Cola did the rest. @JohnEGreen hug for the Lady Macbeth type dream @dunelm and @gennepher thnks for sharing your creative gifts. @Annb hug for the pain. Have a little song for the Holiday Season (I love the whole Good Night John Boy vibe - hold the milk and cookies for me though) - lyrics. Y’all come back now, ya hear? For me that encapsulates real spirit/meaning of woke but haters gonna hate.
Thank you @gennepher. Looks like we are taking our grandson, Mr Pickle out for lunch. He damaged his Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) in a football match a few weeks ago and has just been operated on. What with him in a leg brace and me with a swollen knee we will be be a right sight.I am liking this bamboo ink dippers series very much....
Have a great unplanned day @dunelm
He is probably thinking about not going out just yet.Fbg 6.9

Creative...no time to do a tree sketch (hopefully tomorrow), so today is a photo of Midnight looking out of my glass bedroom door into the garden, wondering where his world has gone (frosted/iced glass door).
Have stuff to do.
Time for a cuppa tea first...
Have your best day...

Smashing payment in kind, much to be enjoyed. Hope that Kiki keeps enjoying the courgette addition and all the best for the vaccination hunting.06.12

Did I mention the pork MrSlim was given? Yesterday he was asked to collect some pie filling, came home with half a pigs liver, the kidneys, a home made boudin noir sausage and assorted other trimmings from our friends pig. Plus half a dozen duck eggs.
MrSlim is not willing to accept money for fixing her barn roof, so is receiving payment in kind.
The liver was delicious, cooked just pink and with onion gravy. We still have about a kilo left. Pigs livers are huge.
On vets advice I am steaming courgettes for Kiki. Mashed up a teaspoonful added to her meals seems to have made a big difference. She still haunts the kitchen but she is definitely more content. We had noticed she was always hungry and increased her portion size, with little noticeable effect on her appetite. However the weight gain as a result was significant, enough to lead to health problems later. In three weeks she gained 300g.
So now back to slightly smaller( original size) meals with courgette. The vet assured me this would help her to feel more full, but not add calories, thus controlling her weight.
Today we are going to attempt to get vaccinations. Have been putting it off because I haven't been well, but with trip go UK looming and dire warnings of potential flu epidemic in France, can't leave it any longer.
Would have been better had I taken more care with the post but I think that does justice to the cognitive dissonance I have balancing the stark contrast between the positivity and the lived experience of so many here and "out there.". Billy Joel has a song about that (Honesty) but maybe too punchy- (yes, I'm aware of the pun thanks) - for now. That is possibly what normcore actually means?Thank you @ianpspurs
That is a good idea to count your blessings instead of sheep...
He crawled back in bed with me...He is probably thinking about not going out just yet.
Hugs for you both but ACL recovery has improved hugely in recent years. Enjoy the meal - hopefully no stairs involved.Thank you @gennepher.

It certainly has made a considerable difference.That’s an inspired suggestion @lindisfel . I guess that being an SSRI, you get serotonin spike tickling your pineal to make melatonin and perhaps reset your sleep wake cycle - but just a guess.
