Good morning!  It's going to be a better day.  Susan got off to work about half an hour ago, she has requested a tossed salad for supper.  Humm, I will see if I can accomplish this.
  Did not take the new medication at bed time last night, slept a little better.  No hallucinations, the headache is not quite as bad this morning.  Susan's remark to me this morning when we got up was "you seem a lot calmer!  I recon that this is a good thing.  At least in this regard I feel better.  In a half hour it is mediation time, and then I should have my headache somewhat under control.  As long as I stay relaxed and calm it (my headache) remains a dull roar.
  So what is on my agenda for today?  I am going to see if I can manage to cut a couple of boards for Susan, and put them in place (I hope).  These are backing for when she hangs her drywall, for the towel bars.  After my morning medication's I will be off for my my morning walk.  And most importantly make a salad for supper!!   Later when Susan is home from work we will spend some quality time relaxing in the hot-tub.
  Well back from my walk.  When I was on my walk I got to reflect on life in the cool spring air.  I thought, what was still going to be needed to accomplish "Building the Simple life".  Oh man is there a lot of work still to be done.  It's like God has put all these tests in our path, that Susan and I must overcome!  And then I remember, just take a deep breath, keep it simple, like baby steps.  One day at a time and then there is nothing that cannot be accomplished with prayer and the Lord's guidance.
