Is any couch better than none? Welcome to Couch 41

I'm the only one allowed to give out grades for reading and comprehension. non sequitur

Ewww Lola now that's just nasty!!!

Next time i will say bejesus or F**** out of my hand.
Trapped in the world of the literal this morning it seems.

If this accident thing keeps going I possibly could give some consideration to perhaps thinking about whether I might should try giving that therapist a call like she is always trying to get me to do.

Thank you stopdog. Please no more reference to bodily fluids. We don't want to encourage Lola. LOL!

UGH. LOLA!!!! Sheesh. Now I have to go boil and spritz.

Granite...we need some aerosol up in here!!!

You forgot to say you kids stay off my lawn.

MKAC - yea sorry. I was not thinking clearly about who I was playing with here today. I was not thinking about snot as a bodily fluid at the time I used it.
I will stick with F@#$%^ from now on.

Oh, and APT, if you're reading, I wonder what the deal is with IKEA putting horse meat in their meatballs? I never saw the Swedish chef do that, bork bork bork bork.

(MISS YOU)

Bunch of babies.... its just a little snot.... geesssshhhhh

Funny how I can deal with all sorts of stuff from my dogs that would creep me out from anyone else.

I drew something over the weekend, and I'm checking to see if I can share it with you guys. Don't know if it will upload, or be too huge or what.

MKAC - nice drawing. Do you draw a lot?

I had no idea you were talented in the arts, that's good MKAC.

Not a lot. I used to, and my T keeps trying to get me to draw more. Now that it's up, I feel a little ill, because I see the flaws and how out of practice I am. I was trying for a heart shape using the horse, for my daughter.

That's so cool MKAC. Beautiful colors, and nice representation.

WOW, MKAC! That's BEAUTIFUL! I love it!!!

((( Healed ))) - I hope the session goes well for you and H...I hope you're able to see it as an opportunity for some clarity and a place to help pave your way.

I don't see flaws. And I look at art a lot.

Snot would normally gross me out...but considering all the stuff I have been doing with my mom's liver drains and abcess fluid, snot is no challenge.....LOL

I have a "how to drawn horses" book that I got when I was a kid....never really delved into it, but dang, now I have the urge! I need to find that book!!

You should do that! I don't know why I don't draw more as it's really soothing to me. So is crocheting actually.

Gotta leave in less than hour to take my mom to the hospital for a CAT scan to check the progress of her liver and then to internal radiology to see if they are going to take any action based on the result. We're hoping that at least one of the drains will come out today.

I am walking on unstable ground in group T....but not in a bad way, I don't think. Am trying to get the courage to make some progress with my work in therapy and group therapy....T made a comment to me recently that made sense but felt pretty cruddy about...I'm caught between wanting to say FORGET IT and trying to be open to doing things differently. ACK.

I always wanted to learn how to crochet....I was taught a basic step, briefly - and I started making something that didn't quite turn out well. I made the loops too tight in some areas and too loose in the middle....so it turned out becoming a nose muff....I was 12 years old in 6th grade at the bus stop wearing my creation and getting laughed at. But dang, my nose was warm.

I used to love seeing pictures and recreating them when I was younger, so I did draw. I remember drawing mallard ducks.....and disney characters....and painting mountains and water. But all of that faded when I got into my teen years.

In my adult years, my creative interest became jewelry making and painting/decorating wooden things - like birdhouses, sleighs, sleds, boxes.

I wanted to get into water color painting and hired my illustrator to teach me. Only went to a couple of lessons before I dropped it due to finances. I lost interest in it too.

Not sure why I'm rambling...perhaps to see where my creative juices will flow next (bad pun extension on the snot thing, LOL)...

so what kind will you draw, MUE - draft horses? nyuk nyuk

don't mind me, I can't draw at all. Even my stick people suck.

I am not an artsy craft kind of person but I do cook and write stories.
My drawing never progressed past stick figures. That I have to label to have make sense.

Well, my T responded to my e-mails/letter.

Fix,
I cannot adequately respond to your concerns via email. I suggest we meet at our regular time on Tuesday and discuss in person.
T

I guess I shouldn't have expected her to say anything else. She's never been particularly apt to remark via e-mail.
