some good things make a post

- Have received text message with delivery window for tomorrow's migraine meds acquisition process.
- Relatedly: A accompanied me on a Stupid Little Walk this evening, in the rain and the (blessed) dark, and we have acquired both Trifle and Cheesecake. (Probably this time round it will be the Cheesecake, rather than the Trifle, of Positive Reinforcement. I am trying to not turn the misery trifle into an aversive stimulus.)
- Two loaves of bread ready to be baked tomorrow morning (one for normal purposes, one specifically to make bread-and-butter-pudding for A's birthday this weekend).
- Very expensive slippers, still. I am consistently capable of having actually warm feet (well, except when I am in bed, where slippers are Not Allowed, by myself, i.e. without a hot water Adam; whereupon I engage in mild contortions so as to wind up lying on my back with my legs crossed and my feet tucked into the crooks of my knees). I actually had to swap to Less Warm Slippers while trudging during my Duolingo this evening. (Current routine involves Less Warm Slippers first thing while I'm dragging myself through the shower and physio that works better with bare feet, then swapping to Warmer Slippers once I'm done with wanting to get them on and off repeatedly.)
- I continue to accumulate evidence for my theory of endometrioma-induced chronic migraine. (This is a good thing insofar as treating myself as an experiment entertains me, and also Being Right provides The Illusion Of Control. Obviously the actual data collection isn't much fun.)
- I have discovered that fruit bat Experiences are a thing.
- I utterly failed to work my way through Bruce D. Perry's video/seminar series on developmental trauma + COVID-19 back when the relevant central list was still up on the main neurosequential model website, but it was archived and the videos are still live on YouTube, so I'm starting to work my way through those while Doing Mending now that I have actually read (and got on very well with) The Boy Who Was Raised As A Dog.
