Couch 201: The Transformative Grammar Couch

Make room for the cat.

We are a pet friendly couch.

Is it an old timers term? I said that phrase to my friend the other day and she looked at me confused.
Me: Yes. I’m paying the bill for breakfast with cash money
Her: So cash then?
Me: Yep. Cash money.

By the time we got done it sounded like a Seinfeld episode.

Salmon, potatoes, zute fisk?

My friend opened the afghan that I made for her soon-to-arrive first grand baby today! (the package got there yesterday but she was waiting for her boyfriend to get home before she opened it.) She loves it and I feel like I have been a blessing to her in some small way, and that makes me feel a little less broken again, and that is a good thing indeed.

Don't change back.

You have non-performing eyebrows?

The chicken meatball and vegetable medley platter, apparently, and the almond cake.

The way she described them, I've got old-man eyebrows that dominate my face.

In other words, they're overperforming, much like my hair.

Sorry to impugn your husband's honour, but is he telling you the truth?

He may have a point about you needing to communicate better before you can get to the deep stuff.

But an "expert" on communication should know how to listen!

I have overperforming eyebrows as well that would be out of control if i did not shave half of them off at least once a week. I have always hated my eyebrows. It's bad enough that they are dark and have never matched my hair color, but they are thick and bushy besides when left to their own device.

Theres not too much difference between old man and old lady eyebrows, just grooming. Old man eyebrows look like jack o lantern eyes. i cant not stare at trumps.

I am starting to find the odd wild white eyebrow hair. They feel like needles.

healed. I think you are super brave.

What is info talking about? Melina Kanakaredes has a nice brow line.

I wax mine or they look like ferrets.

That's exactly what she said, without the Trump reference. "I can't not look at them."

I stared at hers right back and noticed they match her hair color (right now a weird pale yellow)...so she dyes her eyebrows too?

I've always liked my eyebrows, too. They're not ferrets or thick and beetling, they're just dark.

I have eyebrows that are on the thicker side and I like them. Don't let your therapist make you self-conscious. I'm sure they're lovely and it doesn't sound like she's the one to be offering beauty advice anyway.

Probably. He is a compulsive liar. I wish I could have gone in with him, but it's the clinic's policy that only the patient can see the T and Pdoc.

Today has been a rough day. H has been rude and disrespectful to me the last couple of days, as well as he has not worked much in the past couple of months. I'm wondering if his prophecy is coming true: he speculated that I would get tired of him by the end of the summer. I'm not tired of him, though; I love him. I just want him to be the best version of himself.

In addition, there are some stressful situations going on at my new job. I'm not sure, or at least it's looking like, I won't have a dedicated classroom next year. Our apartment has been overrun with my teaching supplies. I need them to have a home to go to.

Oooooooh

For what it is worth I think you did the right thing. My T would be appalled.

Today started out so well. Then I came home and my neighbour was weeding my garden inside my yard. We sorted it out and she won't come inside the yard anymore but I still feel so angry. I am trying to let it go but nothing is helping.

It spoiled my perfect day.

Long day at work. Boss is starting to get on my nerve. I have very little patience for unprofessional behavior from management. I also have a coworker treating customers like crap but is right up the bosses butt. I am super OCD about customer service so it really grates my nerves.
No post session email to T yet. Amaizing the difference it makes having my son gone. I couldn’t figure out why I was so Uber clingier with T. Apparently it was mostly stress. H is shocked T hasn’t called or emailed to see if I am still alive. I think I will email T Thursday and wish him a safe trip this weekend and remind him that I expect to hear how it went when he returns.

That's so cool! I have a rock collection. Got all the common rocks, and some rare ones. But nothing worth over $50. That's too much for me.

Today was by far the hardest day since leaving the hospital. Went to go get 2 cakes for my kids' birthdays, but only found 1 to match a theme my son picked out. I basically had an anxiety attack trying to figure out how to do the cake to match the theme I bought supplies for. H kept suggesting a unicorn cake which we did last year and it got messed up twice, so I told him I didn't want to do that again plus it didn't match the theme. I got so upset I left the store, got in the car, H said something and I said screw this, I'm done. Got out of the car, grabbed my purse and told him I'd see him later. I was going to go back in the store and try to figure out the cake without the stress of everyone around, but H got out of the car as well and started walking away as well. I ended up getting back in the car and driving off, leaving him in the parking lot until I cooled down, came back to the store to order the cakes and then he got back in the car while I was in the store.
I feel stupid and totally off the walls for reacting that way over a cake situation. I feel like I'm losing my mind these past few days. It's been such a struggle.
I'm not sure what all a care coordinator can or will do, so I don't have much of an opinion of what he should or shouldn't share.
