Apt - are you going away?

MKAC - everything about cell phones is annoying to me - you would think they were selling state secrets sometimes when it comes to getting them.
Thanks for this!

At the end of my last session, T was trying to talk to me about employment stuff - and I questioned him....He asked, "Who's thinking clearer, you or me?"....Then he said, "And I'm always right". I replied, "You're such a man!"....He said, "That's true....can't deny that."....And then as I was walking out the door he said, "I am part of the dominant species"....

I'd imagine most women would take offense to that, but he was joking. I'm glad that we have a good enough relationship that he could say something like that in jest, knowing that I wouldn't take it seriously.

I replied something along the lines of, "You keep thinking that."....and we laughed.

Anyhoo...

Morning, couch peeps....Tired, achy and feeling the start of yet another migraine this morning. *sigh*

Time to make the pumpkin bars...

i had to really stretch my brain to see CE's post as offensive. It was obvious to me that he was inquiring what pwt meant.

And somehow YOU'RE the problem in your relationship?

I hate the mall any time of year. I hate getting a cell phone any time of year. I especially hate getting a cell phone AT the mall. But to do it during Xmas shopping season? Pure hell. My b itch-level would have been WAY above "excuse you" after three hours of absurdity. Especially if I had forgotten to eat, which I do do sometimes.

It's minor in the grand grand scheme of things, but losing 3 hours of your life (well above 10% of your day) and having a "surprise!" dropping of cash on bills that should have been paid -- these don't exactly make for smooth sailing, either.
Thanks for this!

I never mentioned his intentions. I said it would be nice to not see post like that. I have to say CE is a very sensitive man, and I enjoy his postings. I don't believe he meant any harm. I would just rather not see any post like that. My opinion only. I try to give people the benefit of the doubt, and when I don't I expect people to call me out on it.

Have a good day..

Rainy cold kinda icky day here. I want to go walking, but if I get wet I will be miserable.

My pastor gave me a huge hug on the way out of church. Normally it's a handshake situation. He's been really supportive and helpful the last year. Nice to know there are good folks like him around to help when I need it.

Gonna go to my mom's and watch the Packers/Bears game. Go Pack Go!

Finished up the pumpkin bars, homemade frosting, chocolate pretzels....now gotta do one more dessert, get a shower and head over to my sister's house for an early Christmas dinner.

I hope the couch is back to being a safe place where I can relax when I return.

I had a BIG panic attack yesterday. Feeling better today (except for a marked lack of tolerance for those whom I find irritating.)

Anyway, panic lesson learned: I will take the prescribed Ativan along with the Zoloft, even if I am feeling all super tough and not panicky at the time. My pdoc knows more about this stuff than I do & it would behoove me to listen to him.

Holiday party at the boss's house tonight. Baked up chocolate chip, cranberry oatmeal, and sugar cookies last night. Small ones, not full-size, so everyone can have a little of everything. I like not having to commit to one cookie .

pbutton: have done the same thing with my meds before. Some of them I actually do know how to adjust, but I have done the "I can probably go all the way off this one" thing. It did not go well. Glad you're feeling better now
Thanks for this!

Lola used the initials PWT. I didn't recognise that, so I Googled it. But perhaps she meant something else?

I assumed that's what she meant as well. And...I often joke that I come from a long proud pwt heritage and as I am discussing my own family I never realized th at it would be offensive to anyone.....well except for my own family

Anyway, sorry.

Btw, how do you know if a post is being moderated?

Hey...

I think irritation is running rampant today. I went off on a gun toting, right-winged, nra member at church today. I don't want to take away people's right to bear arms, but seriously, why do people find it necessary to stockpile weapons and ammo? Isn't there a middle ground somewhere? So sick of the BS about "mental illness" being the soul issue.

Grrr....and now the men are watching batman and I really hate the dark night series.

For the record, I didn't find the pwt statement/question offensive at all.

Apt...hope your holidays turn out better than expected. Peace and love.
