December 12, 2022:
Exhausted and depressed.
Unclear if there's a specific trigger. Moving is exhausting, moving such a long distance is exhausting and expensive, finances are stressful, results of medical imaging are stressful, abdominal discomfort is tiring and stressful, reading of high liver enzymes although probably transient is stressful. Where the most likely explanation is: not eating enough, the corollary of other mayhem.
It's a storm of stress and unhappiness, punctuated, I hope, by how much I like the SoCal house and how good it is to at last be ending exile.
