How is petpet today?

Yes...He has zero sense of personal space or body language. I have had to teach him everything. He is fear aggressive toward other horses because he doesn't speak.horse. at 7 1/2 he just went for his very first trail ride with horses he did not already know. He did well for the most part. he has to be in the rear even with horses he does know because he may randomly kick or bite and plus though he has zero personal space with people he does not want any other horses within 15 feet of him most of the time. On the trail he will bolt straight into the trees if too many strange horses show up. He's special in so many ways..

Petpet needed another wound that I did not see the first time night cleaned and repaired yesterday so I had to knock her put again and I've been keeping her sleepy because she removed some stitches. She ate a little baby food this morning but mostly she is sleeping. I'm worried but hoping for the best . The other wound was a puncture into her sinuses.

Afternoon, couch.

I am just sitting in my car waiting to go into CVS. I slept the whole time I was home. Oh well for getting cleaning done.

BB, give petpet a hug for me and send her my get well wishes.

Well, I better get inside. I like being early because I can't stand being late.
Thanks for this!

I'm annoyed about that.

You've had a tough life and still have a tough life and I wish your T would make more of an effort.

I told her no but it's frustrating to not have words for things I feel should have words for. Her explanation was very interesting. She said when a kindergartner is upset how do they tell you they're upset? They don't say they are upset because they don't really know what the definition is. They will say they have a tummy ache. So for me not knowing is okay, I haven't learned yet how to explain my feelings except for physical reactions and the physical reactions give her a lot of information.

Anyway, I thought it was interesting. I probably didn't explain it well but wanted to share anyway.
This is where i have found my T useful. If i am struggling with expressing how i feel he will stop me and ask to check in to body and describe what i am experiencing then we find a feeling to fit.have found it useful.

I think i am most annoyed at him because he said something that brought feelings up and i nearly cried and i had to work harder than normal to stop myself crying. He knows i d rather chew razor blades than cry in front of him.

Hey, Art. How does one remember fleeting pieces of dreams or is it possible?

I keep a dream journal next to my bed and write down even little scraps of a dream as soon as I wake from one. (yes even at 3am! some mornings it's hard to read what I wrote while half asleep!) Sometimes I get nothing but a vague feeling, or a word, or that it was about a particular person. I sorta mentally ask my dream-maker to show me more. Or, I tease around what I have in my mind during the day, and sometimes - sometimes - I'll get an "Aha that's what that was!" later in the day. I've had dreams that explain previous bits of remembered dreams too, I know this only because I go back and read through my dream journal frequently because dream work fascinates me!
Thanks for this!

Thanks, Art! I, too, love dream work and my T enjoys looking at them with me. Had a nightmare and as much as I don't want to remember it I feel like there are significant pieces I'm missing like I know what they are but I don't know what they are.

Evening (or rather wee hour morning), couch.

I got tied up at CVS tonight and ended up leaving 30 minutes late. We were slammed and it was just me and the night pharmacist after 8pm. Why everyone chose Wednesday night to come to the pharmacy is beyond me. Yes, it is close to the first of the month and people may be out of their routine medications, but to all choose tonight? Oh well, extra hours are good...I'll take them.

I stopped at Checkers on the way home (I think it is called Ralley's some places). I was in the mood for a Checkerburger and fries. I need to stop eating crap so late at night. Oh well, it was good and my belly is full now. I will get back to a better diet this summer. Microwave meals are pretty bad too, but not as bad as fast food, so maybe I can convince myself to go back to those. It'd be a start.

Well, I have to pick C up at his dad's tomorrow morning and take him to his mom's to watch him for the morning. I start a little later than usual tomorrow, so I should be able to sleep long enough. No CVS again until Saturday afternoon/evening. I should bdo something productove in my time off (like clean). I'll have to see what comes of it though.

Well, I'd better get to bed. Have a good wee hours of the morning, couch.
Thanks for this!

I don't think I have eaten a fast food burger in about a decade. I used to like steak and shake.
I have eaten at a chik fil e once or twice on road trips.

I'd think your burgers are better than fast-food burgers, SD.

I am concerned about the quality/safety/ etc. of fast food chicken but not, for some probably irrational reason, as much as fast food beef.

My partner got an oreo shake from Burger King the other night and I tried it. It was awesome! ! Generally I don't like fast food. The oil they use has a strange bitter aftertaste to me. Nearly everything from fast food places has it. Plus I have horrid genetics ( parents, grandparents, aunts , uncles all Dead by 60 from heart disease or stroke) and despite being a vegetarian, having good cholesterol and triglycerides and being very fit I threw a blood clot into a coronary artery and almost died at 38. ...so I figure I'm better off NOT putting that stuff into.my body. We are on the road constantly but i.just stick an assortment of whole grain energy bars in the glove box for when we are out late
Thanks for this!

I ate far too much McDonald's while I was living in the shelter... It's cheap, reasonably comfortable, and has free wi-fi. Attractive features when you live in a room, can't bring in food and have no internet. I'm very grateful for the shelter, but I'm also very glad to be out of it

Good morning couch..

The week is almost over, the school year is almost over, and come this fall I will no longer be working here at school. I hate change. I hate my boss.. pretty much hate life at this moment.

Sorry to be all doomy and gloomy. Maybe I will cheer up after we eat ice cream at lunch today

Well, I am at C's. Picked him up at his dad's and we are at his mom's now. He is watching Nickelodeon right now.

I will try to clean when I get home. I'm not tired so there should be no reason for a nap.
