That happened to my ex, it was shortly after a windows update I think. Try a restore. OR it might have been a bios update. I don't think windows restore changes that...

I wish I could be more this way. It's more like my emotions went haywire sometime and I don't know how to have relaxed reactions. (think chicken little) As a consequence though I tend to hide all my true feelings and react the "right" way or even a little detached.

Hi Ike

Yeah, this is me too. I like to pretend I'm calm and in control but inside I'm a seething mass of freaked out

I wish my son's bus was a little more predictable. Yesterday it got here at 6:05. Today I'm sitting here waiting at 6:15... Be alright if I could wait inside the house but my apartment is in the back...

I'm going to see The Countess in less than an hour. Going to talk about why I care so much about work and why slurs on my competence hit me so hard.

[stopdog]

Hope it went well CE

Oh god I am hurting....This morning I was flexing a horse's hind leg to check for an injury. He was all " look what I can do human! " lifted the other hind leg off the ground and dropped all his weight into me. Badly strained back muscle. Want to take some drugs but I have too much to do tomorrow and a muscle relaxant will knock me out til noon

[stopdog]

That does sound ouchy

Thanks.

It was OK, but I'm not sure it did much good. She says I just need time to get over it.

I saw her once before. I don't have time to find someone new, so I'm giving her a second chance.

She said she was pleased to see me again.

ETA: Ts are always pleased to see patients who turn up on time, pay promptly and in full, and don't damage the fittings.

i haven't had proper internet for 2 days now.....

Having internet go out does suck.

I'm feeling a lot of that too lately with the mortgage process and at work both. I've been working hard at letting it go - the self doubt - but it's a stubborn hanger-on-er having been a huge part of me for the past 53 years. I don't get why it should be so hard to let go of a part of me that I don't want. But maybe I do still want it and am just kidding myself I don't know. T asks me "what do you get from holding onto it?" My answer is that it gives me an excuse to not give things my all. Admitting that makes me cry. Yet, I still cling to it. I have to meet with my coachees 3 times each this week, and I've met with one of them only once so far. I'm so afraid of not doing it right that I just don't do it at all, and fail them anyway, so I don't know what my problem is. I'm just so **** full of self doubt too and I hate it.

I love how you give nicknames to your T's. I hope she can help.

"Give it time" sessions leave me wanting a refund. Hope things get better soon CE.

Pictures from whale watching, one of the reasons I love living in this region.




The naturalist shared that research on this population suggests they may have emotional intelligence that surpasses ours. They travel in family groups for life, and "Granny," the matriarch of one of the two pods we saw is estimated to be 104!
