Why yes, I am cheerful and good natured

I installed an app on my iPad for MS symptom journaling. Every day I am supposed to tick boxes for which symptoms I had, whether I took my medication, etc. There's a box for how I feel, and the default choice is "Contented". For all I grumble sometimes, I have to say I rarely see a need to choose any other option. And there's a slider to rate my day on a scale of 1 to 10. I rarely choose anything lower than 7.

Is it weird to look back at a couple months of data and feel surprise that I am generally pretty cheerful? I guess bad days stick in my memory more than all the ordinary days which are overall pretty decent.

Farewell to the Super10 rig

And in other news, today the Super10 rig was picked up. Lots of space in the garage now!

Cross country trip

And in still more news, Steve left mid-afternoon yesterday for his first ever motorcycle trip to the west coast. He is riding the 2013 Honda F6B. He stayed with a friend in Indianapolis last night. Today he visited a motorcycle museum in St Louis, and he just called me a little while ago from where he is spending the night in a classic roadside motel in southwestern Missouri. He's going to visit my sister in New Mexico this weekend and then continue on to California.

So I am holding down the fort here at home. I have more time to update my journal, and I'm going to read my book, watch tv shows he is not interested in, and I may even start laying out some of the train tracks.
