* I am clearly not well, whether it is last week's thing re-surging or some new thing, I don't know, but Saturday's headache was particularly debilitating and I'm struggling to accomplish anything.

I used my usual arsenal of tricks to deal with pain, but they weren't nearly as effective as I'd hoped. It did not help that Sunday brought patches of rash up all over my body, which is a thing that just happens sometimes. I apologizes if I'm not up to my usual quality, but I am doing my best.

As I started out the month with an unpaid bill and mounting fees and a ridiculous number of prescriptions waiting for pick up, I project I'll be something like $150-200 behind as the month progresses. Sigh. And I keep not being well enough to manage setting up an Auction.
