I started the taper last Tuesday which means that today I took my last morning dose of Lithium. So far so good. I’ve had a reasonable amount of energy – not too much – and things seem to be going well. This long holiday weekend (Labor Day in the US) has seen me trying to capitalize on the motivation I have and get some things done outside that I’ve been putting off, among other things. So, since I got off work on Friday we have:
- Gone to two grocery stores (standard for us)
- Went to the farmer’s market
- Cleaned up most of the flower beds in the yard
- Fell and hurt myself (not badly)
- Cleaned up the garage and swept it out
- Cleaned up and organized the storage space out under the house
- Screamed when I found a dead mouse
- Had my mom and step dad here for dinner (and they loved the Indian red lentil dish I made!)
- I made a Christmas gift for a friend
- Finally hemmed a pair of pants
- And I cleaned up the closet in the guest room so it could actually be used by a guest
There has also been a reasonable amount of knitting. And this morning Lancelot was kind enough to start work on our skull army. I think this has been a pretty good week.

You got a lot more done than I did and I’m glad you are happy with your level of success. That’s the most important element. Good luck with the meds. Are those cookies?!

Those are tiny waffles! The other side actually looks like a waffle but this side looks like a skull. I got it at Target and I think they have a whole variety of designs.
