Had a tough night , or early morning , as it were . The pain was extreme , I think I fell asleep in my chair around 5 am . Didn't sleep very well there , so crawled into bed at 7:30 , and slept soundly until 1:30 . Still having some pain today , not as severe . My urine stream is weaker and more sprinkler-like than last evening , but it feels like the irritant has moved past my prostate . Still way better than I was 2 weeks ago .
  Today , Halloween , is the 10th anniversary of our first night here . We made arrangements to move in a week before closing . From that first night , this house feels like I'd always lived here , it has been very much "home" . Not many kids this time , the rain has been fairly steady all evening . At least it's not bitter cold or snowing . Many other towns moved trick-or-treat to tomorrow because of the forecast for this weather .
  It's getting late , I'm having some pain and discomfort , so good night , peace .
