Welcome to the Couch! People of PC Psychotherapy (All Welcome Part 6)

we are adopting a third kitty tomorrow

That's good news! I hope there will be pictures

I've been to the Moomin museum in Tampere today. Seriously cool. Moomins are not just kiddie stuff in Sweden and Finland - the English translations turned them all into children's books - and this was definitely a museum that held appeal for children and grownups both. Excellent stuff.

Maybe at some point I'll try writing about how Moomin books can help fight depression.

we will post pics when we ca. kahlua and emma are psycho kitties

i dont know what a moomin book is

I am not familiar with moomin. Of course I am not that familiar with children's books either - so perhaps not surprising. I look forward to reading it Apt (so get on it - and include pictures so I will know what you are talking about).

hi rain welcome

Welcome Lone!

Good luck TTGB!

Please post pics IB!

Everybody else...hi!!

It's after 10 and I'm still in bed. Gotta get up and get to work. I hope I'm not so ADD today. Also, I've been wearing dresses all week. That ain't happening today. Jeans and a t-shirt.

Happy Friday!!!

just watching the shooting in colorado.wow so sad

happy friday

I had to look moomins up. Had never heard of them.

Thanks for teaching me something once again Apt!

yea Granite, 12 dead, more than 50 wounded...it's awful.

hahahaha

heading out to do some craft stuff

gotta clean house. Be back later.

We need to go back to the Adam West Batman. POW and BIFF.

I am planning on taking part time studies at the local college when I get back to work but that could be a year from now. It is the only way I can pay for the courses, need to work. I'm currently on ltd through my insurance at work.

I need to find new employment after I finish getting a certificate. I'm am wasting away in a manufacturing position. Took me being off work to realize that my whole working life it has been warehouse/factory and I need more. I hated school found it boring and didn't exactly push myself.

My psychiatrist says I can do better, I'm intelligent and am a wonderful writer.lol Yeah I don't know how the writing came to be but I am not complaining.*S* Not going to argue with being smart either, sorry if I am coming off con seeded. Not sure if that is spelled right. hehehehe

H got back from his unenployment hearing. He is not confident. His ex employers showed up with a lawyer, the debuty director and some other big wig. He said it was hard and they were attacking him. The unemployment referee did not let his employers submitt information that went on in the grevience hearings. They only wanted to know what lead to the termination. So I guess that's a plus-because they were trying to attacking him with stuff that has nothing to do with this case. So we will know in a week if we get awarded the unemployment. Ugh.

TTGB, I'll keep my fingers crossed for you! It's crazy how hard they're fighting his unemployment.

These are crazy times Critterlady. Ill be pulling for you TTGB.

Granite- I 3rd the art suggestion, maybe just a class to get your feet wet.
LoneWolfie-Hope that works out for you, I always loved school too
Invisible Butterfly - please share kitty pics, I cant have nay as W is allergic...but i make up for it with Dogs..LOL

Sorry you had a rough night MKAC, hopefully Stopdog can assist you- wonder twin lawyers activate...LOL

Chopin-I hope you can smash the ADD today, that extra sleep may have helped?

Wiki- What up homey? Any word from Insurance?

Hey Sconnie-its neat how you can plan your menus, I have no idea what im doing from one minute to the next, let alone picking out my food in advance..

Hello Rainbow - hope all is well.

Happy Afternoon APT.- googlin Moomins

Im sure I forgot someone - as the couch gets bigger Im going to collectivly refer to us as THE GANG. I always wanted to be in a gang, not like a blood crip thing, more like a Our Gang Thing.

I did PM Doc J and he said a LOL button wasnt going to happen as this was a support website.... I strongly disagree, I though Laughter WAS medicine. Hell what do I know.

TTGB...if they can't bring up things they knew BEFORE they fired him their chances of winning are slim. Best of luck to you, I really hope you get some good news.

H told me this morning that I should just plan on going into treatment on the 31st. If our pricey health insurance bails he said he will personally pay out of pocket. He told me I am worth every penny and more. Sweet H, there is no way I deserve him.

I REALLY needed this giggle. Thanks!

ok song of the day dedicated to all the miserable mothers out there

Little Tricia the puppy's foster family is picking her up tonight. She's cute and all, but I have enough puppy activity with Sadie. And she chewed thru the screen on my cellphone, so I have to use this old hipster flip phone (I am thinking an iphone 4s in order).

You will always be the bitter, saddest part of me

Thanks Granite. Hey Apt, can I get this embroidered in a 5 X 7 for my mothers mantel?

Wiki-your H sounds wonderful. You are worth it and deserve to get the help.

I haven't been able to read all the pages. Thank you everyone for the support and well wishes with the unemployment. The appeal process is 3 steps do if we get denied we can appeal to the board of review and if we get denied again we can appeal to the court of common pleas. Either party can appeal all the way to the court of common pleas. So at least I can hold onto the fact that we can fight this more.
