It's August.
Where does the time go?

I haven't had time to blog, or even consider fiddling with the new format.
Am trying to get back into the everyday routine of a new semester, before the semester actually starts later this month. That means rising before 5 am again. This summer I definitely spoiled myself by getting up around 6 am. Of course part of the routine involves moving around, drinking water, taking probiotics, organizing my stuff, checking email, and getting out the door by 6:15 - 6:30.

Whew! I'm exhausted just thinking about it!

No new news regarding symptoms or issues with bowel. I still take my Natren probiotics. The chinese herbalist I see did make one or two changes to the supplements I take. Today I will see her again, and am bringing all supplements to test - I want to find out what subtle changes we need to make.

I am also looking forward to learning more about the Chi Nei Tsang - we will do that at today's session as well.

My brother showed up at 2 am Wednesday. He pulled up in front of our house and slept in his truck. Brought his dog too. Somehow I hadn't expected that he would show up at our house in the middle of the night. I also didn't expect that he would want to stay for a couple of days. He has a lease and keys, etc. There are always extenuating circumstances....

Long story short, he didn't ASK if he could stay, just assumed it was OK. Now, I would never turn him out, but I really prefer that he do the courtesy of asking. I will talk with him later about this. It is important. I had a major headache all day yesterday; tension about this invasion of my personal space... tension about being taken for granted... tension about disruption in my routine... You get the pic?

More later. (how much later is anyone's guess)
