I’ve had a week of poor sleep that feels like it’s catching up with me. My mood is sour and my mind is mush. This sort of state leaves me with anxiety. The running joke in the family is that anytime the markets are about to go off I feel it in my body long […]

Day 1552 and Mold Updates
Over the winter we did a mold test on our bedroom after I had had a batch of sub-optimal bloodwork and flares in my autoimmune condition. We wanted to be thorough in assessing potential reasons for any issues from environmental to pharmaceutical. I was suspicious that mold would be a culprit. Or perhaps I did […]
Overweighting the American markets has been the default in finance for decades. The growth of the magnificent 7, the “exorbitant privilege” of the American dollar, and the security of the defense umbrella of our alliances bolstered treasuries. American exceptionalism has been rocked with Liberation Day and the subsequent fallout for many. Nobody in business in […]
I had not planned it this way but I had a repeat of the meiborn gland issue that got me sent to hospital in February. I had, in just four short days, a chalazion turn into hordeolum aka an infected cyst. It’s probably a side effect of the IL-17 biological I am using. I had […]
1560 and Signs to Act
I’ve been holding myself a bit back from the world as I’ve been trying to take care of myself and lay low. Too much system input and a spate of bad luck (housing and health issues) made for a bumpy time. So while I’ve been steadily attempting to stay online for some information flow my […]
Day 1541 and Mycotoxins
One of the more exhausting problems that arose over the winter was mold contamination in our master bedroom and adjacent rooms. It’s taken six weeks to get in the right folks for testing and assessment. We’ve not been able to start remediation as the best option for the job isn’t available. Alex has been able […]
Much as the winter has been hard on everyone in my close circle, I don’t particularly want spring to arrive. I’d rather have a pleasant winter follow the unpleasant one instead. I woke up to fresh snowfall this morning after a hard night. Some previous stressor is making my hair shed. Pain has wrapped itself […]
Day 1528 and The Days Go By
My family has had a really difficult winter. In November I felt so much optimism heading into the darker months. As we spring ahead for Daylight Savings I honestly have no idea how we survived. My husband and I have both had a run of awful luck with our health. Somehow we both got pneumonia […]
Day 1524 and in the Red
The MilFred family household is not at its finest. My husband Alex seems to be in the throes of pneumonia while my body is doing its best to manage a host of medication changes. We have all the typical work while this goes on along with a few other crisis management projects (mold). All dashboards […]
Day 1515 and Hope in the Dark
Given the amount of illness that seems to be plaguing folks this winter I’m surprised we’ve not all decided to hide until Spring thaw. Every event seems to be a super spreader. Our physical immune systems are shot and I doubt our emotional defenses are much better. Everyone is predicting informational dangers myself included. It […]
