Like she feels the pressure too? Fortunately i have people watching out for me, and google! As my dad used to say, im not as dumb as i look. Maybe the guy is just overemotional.
Death/funerals bring out the weirdness in people.

Trying to get caught up on the couch but can't keep my eyes open. Spent the day at 2nd degree Reiki thing and I'm wiped out from it, think I'll be taking a late afternoon nap!

Hi, couch.

I was away from the couch for a couple days and it looks like I missed some things.

(Hank)...I am sorry for your situation. I your family does drive you too mad over all of it.

I ordered pizza tonight. I didn't feel like cooking. I couldn't decide what type I wanted, so I ordered 2. One with green peppers, sausage, and black olives. And then other with pepperoni, bacon, and pineapple. I ate half of each large pizza, so I guess I actually ate a whole pizza. :-) I combined the 2 halves that we left into one box. Now I have lunch and/or dinner for tomorrow.

I had today off and have tomorrow off. I sat down with the sneak peak of the CVS ad that starts tomorrow and counted my extra rewards bucks and set up a plan to buy some needed items and some good to have on hand items. After looking at what was on sale and what would earn rewards bucks, I went to coupons dot com and found some coupons for some of the stuff.

I found a manufacturer coupon for Advil for $1 off, I have a CVS store coupon for $1.50 off Advil. I have some extra rewards bucks I can use as well. All this on top of my employee discount. I estimate that I can get a 50ct bottle of Advil for 25 cents. Name brand not store brand. I normally would get store brand because it is cheaper but if I can make out like a bandit on name brand, then I might as well.

I don't need Advil right now, but I am out (my old bottle expired), so I need to have more on hand should I ever need it. Sucks to have to go to the store and get some when you feel miserable because you need it, better to have some handy.

I am also getting a tube of Neosporin for about a buck. Manufacturer coupon for $1.50 off. Store coupon for $2.00 off. Employee discount. And rewards bucks. I love getting things for dirt cheap.

Of course I had to spend money to get the rewards bucks, but it was on previous purchases of items that I needed (tootpaste, new hairbrush, deodorant, shampoo, toilet paper, etc).

The year is just a little of halfway over and I have already saved about $350 on my purchases. I wonder if I count as a loyal customer yet with how often I shop there. Probably not because I am an employee. :-P

Well, I cleaned some more today as well. Threw the scrubs and tshirts that were taking up one dresser drawer into my empty suitcase (since I hardly use them anymore) to free up the drawers to hold an overload of snacks I needed to find a place for. Also combined my socks and underwear into one drawer rather than spliting it between two in my other dresser (with small drawers) to free up a drawer for my make-up/nail polish/body sprays. CVS by where I was live was trying to get rid of a slow moving scent in their body spray asile (not CVS brand) and had it marked 50% off. I liked how it smelled, so I bought one. Only spent $3.69 for it. I am turning a new leaf and want to let my "girly" side out. I wonder how long the phase will last this time. Yep, I call it a phase...I go through it every so often.

I challenged T to be on time for our next appointment... It will be super hard, because he had to move my appointment from 4pm to 8am.. He generally doesn't start his appointments until 9am, and he is usually late for them. So, we shall see..

Argh my isp suspended my service because the automated billing service doesn't like the way I pay bills. I pay the bill by adding credit to my account throughout the month. They must have new system because this only started a few months ago. I thinking of looking for a new isp.

Hi couch. I think maybe the prednisone is causing me troubles. I feel so .... well, it feels like my chest contains water on a high simmer, a horrid overheated, bubbling up feeling of anxiety/agitation. It's been like this all week. I took the last pill last night, but still feel really off. Wrote to my T. Everything sets me off right now.

I think I'm going to hide under a cushion on the couch. It has to be more stress-insulated than my life here.

Off to meet the wolves. Last night i dreamt about her. There was a party, and i could see her, and apparently other people could see her too, so i went to the information desk(!) where there was an ask-a-t on duty, who just happened to be one of my old ts(again, !) and he said yes, if you were connected to them, anyone could indeed see dead people. She did yell at me in an earlier part of the dream and tell me she was going to the police about me, and i told her it didnt matter because i was going to turn myself in first. Watching all those Rifleman reruns paid off! Omg.

I picked some cds to play at the funeral home, including pavarotti singing mamma. It'll be cathartic.

As long as the casket doesn't get crashed over and police don't have to intervene - I would consider it successful.

That pretty much sums up any family get together of mine. I would also add no drunken nakedness.

Hang in there Hankster.

I had a dream about t again last night. I have dreamed about her 3 times just this month already. At least twice last month too. That was more just in 2 months than in the entire rest of the time she's been my t, more than 3.5 years. Weird.

Been watching a Harry Potter marathon all weekend. Taking a little break from it to take the kids to the park with their cousins.
