Beth I hope M can start being more consistent with appts that’s just hard to handle when it’s hit or Miss like it’s been lately.
She might love a gift and not think it’s crossing boundaries. Glad you love you blanket. I might get one in the fall. Now that summer is here I can’t handle a blanket of anykind, sheet either even with the AC blasting.

Sitting on my porch in the shade and there’s a breeze so it’s actually comfortable.
My PsA pain is waking me up at night. Like Really?!!!!!! I really wish I could get a new kitchen sink it’s stainless and old in a bad way. It’s just dull and I hate it. I have specific cleaners and polishes and it does little anymore. My whole kitchen is spotless but that damn sink ruins it. Ahhhhh maybe one day it’s low on a “ want” list. We let neighbor Mennonites put cattle on our land last 3 years and refused to take any money of course. Today Wendall came over saying he’s bringing a load of gravel for the driveway that we have been needing so bad. Yes I’m excited over gravel lol Yes Gus is nosey lol Anyone have weekend plans???!

@*Beth*
I feel your pain about not wanting to “start over”. I still feel that if my T ever left or stopped seeing patients I would not get a new one. I’ve been with her for 7 years, it would be impossible to start over. She’s probably only about ten to fifteen years older than me but still, who knows what could happen. However…you do seem just so upset when you can’t see her regularly. It’s a real conundrum, I know, with no easy solution unfortunately. I hope you can reach the decision that’s best for you! I’m glad your bamboo blanket came in and that you find it so helpful! I get cold at night, not hot, so I don’t have that issue, but if I did I could understand how bamboo would be appealing! I’m considering purchasing a bamboo pajama set though. __________________ Of course it is happening inside your head.

I have TONS of house plans if we ever hit the lottery lol. Some stuff can be done slowly, like a new ceiling fan and a new side porch light. I really want a sconce on the kitchen wall above the table as the lights cast shadows right over where we sit to eat. But that will have to wait. My dream is to build a patio and a greenhouse but that’s likely never going to come to fruition. We’d be better off moving in a decade or so to a house that already has a patio! I love this house, it’s great for a first house, but when my son gets older and maybe goes off to college I want to look around in a more rural-ish area for a larger yard. I know RS would love a garage and more space to store his various vehicles (two large diesel trucks and a jeep Cherokee). Pretty impossible to afford anywhere with a big yard in NJ though. Even the more rural areas are being built up with McMansions. I’d love to take my grandma’s house but she specifically said no one gets it, we are to sell at split the profits to be fair to everyone. She knows there would be arguments among my dysfunctional family This weekend I start work at my part time job, and then we’re taking my mom out to a belated Mother’s Day lunch. Then on Sunday we’re going on a hike in the mountains then to my grandmas to pick up a deck umbrella. She can’t stand throwing stuff out so we agree to take it under the guise of using it and donate/throw it out ourselves. I think she knows this but she still feels better if we do it!

It has been 3 weeks since I fell and hurt my knees. I really think I should go to physical therapy to be evaluated and treated.
Both knees have different problems/pain when putting pressure on them like for my job. I kneel down on the floor. anyway... hugs to anyone who needs one.

I was in the middle of Season 10 when something triggered my mind and I realized that I had already watched season 10 Darn Klonopin has destroyed my memory. So I found season 11 on a PBS site and watched the first episode. I'm excited because the creators of the show have said there will be seasons 12 and 13! It's interesting to me because when I had my babies I had to have c-sections both times. The first one went well. The second time, my son, was an agonizing birth. I had a good friend who was a midwife and had strongly discouraged me from having another cesarean section. I was young and insecure, so I listened to her - or tried to. After a 23-hour labor that included 6 hours of pushing (ridiculous) I finally begged for a cesarean. When he was born, my son weighed 10lbs., 7 oz. Huge. No wonder he got stuck! My point is that I didn't have a good feeling about midwives after that birth. They tend to be anti-cesarean, which is foolish, as some people need to give birth by c-section. The show Ask the Midwife has helped me to have a much better feeling about midwives. The books Jennifer Worth wrote are so interesting, as you can imagine. After I read them (a set of 3) I donated them to a little library. That was in the autumn so the books are long gone, otherwise I would be so happy to send them to you. __________________ Last edited by *Beth*; May 14, 2022 at 07:26 AM.. |

Thank you I actually, reluctantly, made an appointment with another therapist at the new clinic where my new med provider is. I was going to check out another T and see what I thought. 2 days before my appointment the clinic receptionist called and said the therapist needed to cancel my appointment . So that was that. No point in going through it all to get another therapist who cancels. I went to a couple of therapists before I found my current one. They were total duds. Well-intentioned, but just not a fit, at all. I'm going to buy bamboo pj's in June. Amazon sells them. __________________ |

I was sleeping well, but then had to get out of bed and move around some. Now it's dawn. Suddenly it warmed up yesterday. It's likely that summer weather has arrived. 90 degrees today, which means a/c this afternoon. I love having the windows open as long as possible, though. My apartment is tiny, but it has wonderful great big windows.
So I had that inspiration to drop the bells off on my therapist's porch. I couldn't shake it, so I drove over there, parked a bit of a way from her house, walked over quietly and quickly, and left the gift. I came home and called my T's dear receptionist & asked her to text M., tell her that there is something on her porch. 5 minutes later the receptionist called and said M. says "you shouldn't have, but they're beautiful. I'm going to hang them up, the fairies will love them!" (We have talked about fairies in her garden.) So I was glad I threw it out to the universe and dropped off M.'s gift. __________________ |

Try not to do this. I think it really wouldn’t work out well for you. I know it’s hard but I think this would make it worse in the long run. Edit - never mind I just saw your update. Glad it worked out for you |

I wouldn’t go by that. They aren’t always right. If you think somethings wrong fight for yourself or get your mum to help. Don’t rely on drs always being right. |

My anxiety is eating me alive. I was due to get a vaccine today and I’m totally incapacitated. I don’t know what in the world is going on with me. Ever since I STARTED and stopped that Wellbutrin, I’ve had a problem with serious anxiety. Klonopin does not help. Neither does Xanax. These med providers just don’t listen sometimes. It’s like them telling me that the Lithium was such a low dose that it wouldn’t hurt me and I have permanent kidney damage now. Give me a break.
Tomorrow is our family celebration. I’m looking forward to seeing M as I said. She’s only coming for the meal then leaving so I won’t be able to visit with her much but we had a nice hour long conversation yesterday. Also Florida is coming up just me and her so there is that. I hope everyone has a peaceful day. Hugs to all. |
