I feel totally uninspired

We get an embolism of cyclists cluttering up the roads.

Maybe: "a trample of tourists" ?

Is a group of tourists a herd, a swarm, or a flock.

Maybe the collective noun should be an agitation of tourists.

August is the month opposite my birth month, according to astrologers this is a difficult time for many people.

Also we have herds of tourists and I mean herds.

I did try on some M&S bra's from the miniscule selection they have in Bangor, I went to Llandudno last year to the big store there and had a fitting, I asked for no wires or bones and got wires and bones as apparently I'm to big not to need this level of support and find bras uncomfortable because I've not TRAINED myself to be OK with them! I mean WTF? I have problems with the measurement things too, they never come out right, how can a bra be the right size if I can shrug my shoulders and fall out of the bottom of it?

I can't have dahlias, they make me sneeze so badly I can barely catch my breath, the only thing I can draw is a bath and I'm a decorator not an artist, my shoulder problems have put paid to me holding anything above mid chest height. I don't have a camera, I dislike photographs at the best of times, and I take a terrible photograph, even though I was taught by someone who was really good. I have water bowls for the wildlife to drink from and bathe in. Gnats home in on me from miles around.

Dusk here is a couple of hours, longer in mid summer, when it's still light at 10pm.

Uno, I could ask Boris cat to visit you and bring Fearn with him, they'd deal with the rats, Boris taught Fearn dog to hunt and she only catches rodents. Between them they make a formidable hunting team.

I think moods are related to hormones.  Wikipedia lists 64 for humans.

The system for regulating these is complicated and interlinked. It is controlled by the nervous system.

Given the sensory, perception and processing differences and brain differences in autism, it is likely the hormone levels are going to be either different or more or less likely to change.

I suspected as much, so in this current episode I tested some a couple of months ago and found them outside normal ranges. I'm having a blood test tomorrow to look into it more, although I am starting to feel better so I am not sure what it will show, we'll see.

I think diet and vitamins influence the whole system too, as does sleep and exercise.

So I reckon trying to get all the hormones in a normal range is a good thing for overall happiness. It is not easy to monitor them all in real time though which is annoying.

I think the winter stuff is related to vitamin D and lack of sunlight, the summer stuff to overstimulation from bright light, more noise, heat and poorer sleeping.

Winter is where my mood drops, I can’t pinpoint why but I figured I had that seasonal effective disorder? The warm sunlight on my face feels very healing.

I don't see the point of a jumper that would barely cover my boobs and leave the rest of me cold and exposed.

Better than the other way around I would have thought.

I hate bites too. I'm careful to avoid any water sitting around so it stops the mosquitos. It's been so dry though that there are few this year. I attract mosquitoes.

I also avoid being outside at dusk.

It's the time of year for flowers. Should second flush on the roses. I like flowers, I have a couple of vases of flowers I get from the florist. I have the passion flower outside. Plus troughs of marigolds and the petunias. And roses and dahlias, and lobelia, etc.

There must be some hobby you can do though that can use the extra natural light, painting or photography, or just reading or crosswords.

Have you had a look at the M&S cotton bras that I posted about a while ago? I find them very comfortable.
