Checking in for 2024-01-21:

I managed to do more work on the book that I'm working on and got some positive feedback. I'm not sharing the link quite yet because it's early stages of writing but so far I'm pleased with how it's coming together. We'll see how many pages are in this book. There's a lot of ground to cover and it's unlike anything else that I've tried to write. Hopefully it's a case of right person, right subject.

(I promise I'll be a little less cagey about it soon. Trust me.)

I'm a little annoyed that my blood pressure seems to continue to fluctuate greatly but still be high. I know this is something that bedevils cancer patients so I'm not surprised but it feels like I'm popping an inordinate amount of pills for little gain. Perhaps it'll take some time for this stuff to take effect. It just frustrates and angers me at the amount of effort that we're putting in to reliving something that seems pretty constant and stagnant. The latest drug to enter the ring today is Metoprolol (nee: Lopressor), which is combined with the Losartan. It's only been one day so I shouldn't get my hopes up too much, but I am still feeling annoyed.

I gave myself permission to beat the drums extra long today. I think I've earned it.

More as I know it.
