Another hot one! Major lethargy each day until the evening cool down takes place. Awoke several times last night soaking wet from the heat though.

Just got a vmail message from one of the politicos running for office next week. That was a short monologue.

Jumped in the shower with the water turned to a cool setting. Very refreshing! Elected to not head out to dance tonight. Feeling warped by the heat. I'm ok in the morning and later in the day--midday with heat is another issue. Like the early evening. Quiet time to some degree here in the complex and I can meditate and rest.

I keep vacillating between thoughts of me being tired and enervated and my relatively somewhat light symptoms and conditions. I am still mobile, able to drive, fairly able to handle most things. Just had a thought about taking cool showers--if that might not be better for my muscles and movements. Warm to hot water enhances the slower actions--cold water might just "wake me up." Will have to experiment! No cost, low cost!

Back in a bit!

Rested and read some. Feeling whole and healthy during the past few hours. Tremor abated with only a slight tightness in my arm. Morning and night times are the best. Midday not so good.

I did a pan through the "looking for volunteer" projects in the area. Feel like I need to be doing something beyond staying holed up and "miserating" (I made up this word). Hopefully, next week's fast and diet plan will shift my energy so that I can start doing more than sleeping, eating and the rest.

Been running a mantra in the spaces that appear for the past few days. Seems to help focus my attention, if nothing else. Looking for the "stillness"--the empty space--the still and empty space.
