They Were Flowers Once

Copyright August 18, 2018, by The Real Cie

Bit of a cheat--this tree flowered in the spring, and now the flowers have become crab apples. I'm not ambitious enough to try canning them or any such thing. Perhaps the fine crow which was scavenging trash from the median will enjoy some of them.

I'm not always awake in the early morning, but I don't sleep well. I had been taking a low dose CBD/THC edible to help with insomnia and leg cramps, but haven't been able to afford it in a while, so I just deal with the insomnia and hope for no leg cramps. I don't like the way prescription sleep medications make me feel. I find that a lot of the time the "cure" is worse than the problem itself. I would never set foot in a doctor's office if I didn't have this wreck of an endocrine system to deal with.

Honestly, I'm glad to see the first signs of fall. I'm hot all the time anyway, which makes summer complete misery for me. Sorry to all you folks who like summer. It's my turn!
