I feel upside-down. Trying to let go of that darn therapy session yesterday. Why didn't I open my mouth? Typical.
Anyway. I guess it's fortunate that I followed my intuition today and went to my primary care doctor. He's very kind and gentle. Old-fashioned. He said the infection is deep, it's not healing, so he had to (sorry, hope this doesn't creep anyone out)
numb it with a shot, excise it, do this and that. It's all seeming complicated and oh, geez, I know it's certainly not the worst thing! But I feel like it's a manifestation of my terrible depression of this season.
Go me. I have to pay a lovely visit to either urgent care or the ER every day to have the dressing dealt with, until Wednesday when I will be seen at the clinic again. Then I get to skip a day, and it's back to the clinic on Friday. Well, I didn't tell them, but I can't go on Tuesday because I have to take 2 cats to the vet (one for a routine procedure, the other has a cold, my diabetic girl, and she needs an antibiotic, I'm worried crazy about how to work something out $).
I absolutely cannot be sitting and waiting anywhere for hours so I'm late for taking care of Sidney (her insulin shots). So I'll do what I can. In the meantime, I am taking Keflex (antibiotic). Plus, there's an annual display of luminaries in David's neighborhood, one of the grand old historic neighborhoods in town, and it's on Sunday night. I want to see it; it's the only special thing I'm doing all season and I won't be missing it.
Anyway. You all probably know how I love getting my hair done. That was a birthday gift to myself. So I went in on Wednesday to my regular stylist. She and I usually have a fabulous time together, singing, laughing, joking around. But her birthday is coming soon, so of course, she was a bit odd. Subdued and withdrawn. I was a bit disappointed, I missed our usual fun time. But she always enjoys doing my hair, and she did this time, too. She pulled her phone out, scrolled through some stuff, said this, and showed me the picture I'll post below. Diana's hair styles have always worked well for me; my hair is thick and wavy and grows it various directions. Plus, I also have a long nose. So I said, "Perfect." And I LOVE this cut! It feels fab! My bangs are a bit longer, how I wanted them.
So I may have to deal with this ratty infection, but while I do I can do it with a nice hair style 
And I guess my hair style has brought us UK weather: loads of RAIN!
