::sigh:: just another "thrilling" entry LOL

                  

I love the graphic above.  D over at This and that, and hockey! made it.  It is beautiful and it speaks to me in some way.  I may have to use it again before Christmas is all over.

I must admit that I didn't watch the entire video that is posted below.  I loved watching the cats (-- I had seen a similar act at the local fair a few years ago.) and couldn't figure out what had some of you so upset.  So I did what I should have done in the first place and watch all of the video.  I have to admit that the "slinging" the cats around doesn't seem right.  I am sorry that I posted something that some found really offense, and I must agree with you on that one point.

I know I haven't been commenting (or posting much here) lately.  So sorry.  Last week and this week have been lousy for me.  Oh nothing major just that the past few years the holidays just have gotten more and more depressing for me.

Last week I went for my yearly mammogram.  I haven't heard anything so I am assuming everything is ok.  But the woman who took the X-rays was just brutal.  For some reason, known only to her, she took them out of sequence and then she got all confused and couldn't remember which she had taken and which she hadn't.  Then she got me all mushed and standing in a very uncomfortable angle and she couldn't find the right thing to put on the x-ray (you know the little words that let whoever reads the film to know if it was the left or right breast, etc.....) took forever for her to find it.  I was not just uncomfortable I was in pain and the idiot didn't know what the heck she was doing.  Was totally mad when I left the place.  I had never had such a horrible time trying to get a mammogram done.

This week I went to the dentist for a cleaning.  I really don't mind that too bad but my null is at an all time high so I knew sitting there would be miserable.  Got jumped on by the nulland the dentist for not wearing my night guard the way I should.  Good thing though Dr P told me that unless I wanted to see him I didn't have to come back until time for my next cleaning.  His way of telling me no cavities!  He just got married (2nd time) this year and I think it must be agreeing with him.

Went to the shrink and we talked about how the meds weren't working.  How much worse the anxiety (and panic attacks) is getting.  The meds I'm on is "supposed to be really good in helping with anxiety".  I told him yeah, they are good -- at making things worse.  So he ups the dose and says to try that and see how it works. ::sigh::  I tell him if it works the way it has in the past the anxeity will be bad enough I won't be leaving my house anymore.  He then says I'll get you a month worth of samples and see you after the first of the year.  Big help.

Been having lots of headaches lately.  Dr and I agree that they are probably coming from all the anxeity/panic attacks I have been having. ::sigh::

After I tooK Sophie last week to get a nail trim I get a postcard in the mail saying she is due for a rabies shot this month.  Now why in the heck didn't someone mention it when I was in there?  Now that will be another trip.  Neither I nor Sophie want to go back.

Did you hear?  Jeff is gone and Joe is back as Journal Editor?
AOL Journals: Magic Smoke I left a lame comment over there that sounded like I was glad that Jeff was let go.  That isn't what I meant to say.  Jeff sounded like he was looking forward to what was to come and I am happy for himabout that.  But it reads more like I put my foot in my mouth.  ::sigh::  I am really happy to have Joe back though.  I missed him.

Russ if you are reading this I am worried about you.  I am so sorry that your mom probably won't be with "us" much longer.  I know this hasbeen a long hard ordeal for you.  I wish I knew something to say or do to make it easier for you but I can't, and I am really sorry.  Love ya to pieces.

Sorry this entry is so long.

Isn't this guy just adorable?:
