Memories: 16 August 2025
16 August 2025 … Did the earth move for you this morning? I was sitting making my YouTube video and my entire house was shaking. I got a helluva fright. It’s rare to get earthquakes in Brisbane. At first I thought I was imagining it. But it kept “rolling”. Wow!

17 August 2025 8:43 am I just woke up to Beau’s singing. A happy boy! I had very convoluted complex dreams about descending into a downstairs apartment with my friend Jarrod. The man who owned the apartment had been put in a home with dementia. He was only in his 40s. We decided to go in and have a look around. Just out of curiosity…we are not thieves.

18 August 2025 7:20 am Good Morning! Paradise has gifted us another day! The sun is shining pertly and courageously. It’s cold. 8 degrees Celsius. But The Tanya is awake, breathing, up and at ‘em. Bit of a backslide with my breathing during the night but still okay. I still can’t find the sweet spot where I breathe all night long without weird flibbertigibbet suffocations.

13 August 2025 6:05 am I am awake. Crystal clear. CPAP was an epic fail last night. But I put myself back on it as I was so weak, dizzy and spiralled under mentally yesterday which has its own epic magic but not quite my usual courageous ebullience.

11 August 2025 … https://youtu.be/eAj1gdAjxH8?si=vjy_pj5YnDVSGL36 “Rainbow Lorikeet Fressers :-)” 11 August 2024 I feel slightly better after a very long sleep last night. Apparently I stopped breathing 2.6 times per hour, even with the cpap mask blowing air into my lungs. Hmmm. I suppose it’s an improvement on me shutting down 37 times each hour. Choose life. Keep breathing.

10 August 2025 6:19 am I just woke up from a very intense dream about Linda Moulton Howe, the ufologist. She was having some kind of heart attack with lots of heart palpitations along with hallucinations, both auditory and visual. I rang 911 and was trying to explain her symptoms but they just kept treating me as if I were crazy. It was very upsetting as I feared she might die while I was getting her help. In real life I hope she is okay as she is in her early 80s.

9 August 2025 9 August 2024 7:22 am. Awake. A better night. Only got up twice. (Around 2 am then again at dawn). Pretty good especially after wrangling with two Optus reps like two giant serpents flying around my head and the distress of those two parking infringement notices from the same day. Farrrrkkkk.

8 August 2025 8:15 am I wake up, feeling like hell. The My lungs are aching. It’s a murky rainy morning. Dirty grey skies. Sullen like my chest. Day 12 of sickness. Far out! But I heard little Beau singing lustily in his cage. A happy Beau! So I might as well be happy too. In sickness or in health. It’s a choice.
