thanks Lala...yah, Mark isn't really like the typical guy when it comes to that sort of stuff. If it wasn't for Mark, I'd have never gone to the doctor every time I get a migraine, or never go to the doctor when I injur myself. He looks after me, so I made sure he didn't ignore it. He goes 1x/year for his physical, too - he requires it for the insurances for his job, I'm just so thankful that the lump showed up when it did, not 2 months from now, then who's to say if he'd have gone or not.

Bad: my knees are still fuucked so I havnt been able to work out more than twice in the past 2 weeks. I have to start going to physio next week, it sucks so bad. Good: Im still losing weight regardless and lost 4lbs in the past 2 and a half weeks.

Aww lala, I'm sending all the good vibes I've got to Dixie. It's really sweet that you slept with her, and not pathetic at all.Good: We officially adopted our new puppy dog, Ginger (I gave up on a clever name and gave Pete free reign) this past Sunday. Zelda is slowly starting to accept this.Bad: My dr told me I'm supposed to gain a pound a week for the rest of the pregnancy. I don't want to gain 20 more lbs damnit. Come on baby, can't you just use the fat I had saved up prior to getting knocked up????

aww AndressFrank, what kind?! Pictures! bad- Qualifications for the job I've been trying to get for a year were changed due to a new salary sytem the govt started, and even though the people have been trying to challenge the new regulations so I could get it, "the man" finally said no. I feel incredibly defeated. good- FI has been so sweet lately, not that he isn't normally, but he has taken time out to say loving things that have really taken my breath away.

I'm sorry to hear about Dixie, lala. The single worst moment of my life was when my puggie best friend died when I was in HS. Even after loisng grandparents, that still sticks out as being more horrible. I hope she gets better!! I don't have any bad or good. Everything is just meh at the moment.

She's a mini daschund. She's only 2 months and we've only had her for a few days so she's still learning. I'll sneak some pics of her in my wedding bio (that I'm working on).

Oh lala..... your post made me make tears....I look at Maggie every morning to see if she's still breathing before I wake her up to take her out. I touch her bed with my toe, and I don't want to do that if she isn't - well, anyway. I just wait to see her belly rise, and once I see it, I nudge her bed. It's the first time I'm making the call/dealing with it alone, but we've had four dogs who've died (3 have had to be euthanized, 1 died on her own the morning we were taking her in). Many, many vibes.And, congratulations!!!1 bad: I'm getting frustrated with attempts to remake the house into "our" house and not "his house I moved into."1 good: DH ordered Halloween costumes for BOTH of us for a party we're going to in 2 weeks (now, let's hope they both fit!) - Elphaba (well, an Emerald Witch) and the Scarecrow.

Missy- Our dog's name is Maggie too!

p2, that's really sweet that you look after each other in that way. no matter how much I try, it takes an act of congress to get my H to the doctor, whereas I'm a pill-popper from way back and have no problem going to the doc. it's great he caught it early. make sure you take some time to yourself as well, you need to give yourself a chance to absorb all of this. I'll be thinking about you guys.

thanks Lala, I'm pretty sure it hasn't really sunk in yet. Our 4 best friends are coming over for dinner tonight, when we'll tell them about Mark. We were so caught up with telling his family and my family last night that we didn't want to tell them over the phone. I think once they know, it'll hit me. I also have 4 weeks' worth of time off (holidays and banked time), so I'm happy that I'll have time to take off without worry. I'm also relieved that we have all the proper insurances on our loans, so at least with Mark not working, I won't have to worry about making the truck and trailer payments and mortgage payments all on my own. We hum'd and haw'd about putting those insurances on, and now are very thankful we did. At least we won't have that worry/stress on our plates.

laladypoet · October 2009

yep, when in doubt, get insurance

I'm sure he will be fine. you're lucky to have each other.

polichik · October 2009

Bad: I'm getting sort of burned out and having trouble focusing in sessions, which is way not ok. I need to get on that.Good: I lost 5 pounds over the past two months and I'm four pounds away from my goal weight.. Woo! I'm also going home to visit family soon.

I'm sorry about your dog, lala. H and I lost our very special little cat six months ago and it was heartbreaking saying goodbye. Bad: My job, which I was previously told would have a five-year contract renewal, is going to be unfunded come the end of next year. it's my dream job and also the place at which I'm doing my PhD. I need to work really fast on my PhD and prepare to find new work next year, which will inevitably not be as fantastic as the great job I have now. Also, crazydresslady refuses to give me any money back and dealing with her is just becoming so painful I really want to give up and move on. AND crazy guy who spat at my work colleagues and I randomly keeps harrassing us and I'm scared to walk to/from work now, which really sucks. Oh and one more: my little kitten may have a terminal illness, and we're treating him with an aggressive steroid which has perked him up and made me realise that he actually hasn't been as well as I had thought he was in the past couple of months. (apologies for above rant!) Good: I have a beer in my hand, H and I will have pizza we made for dinner, and I know that most of the above is going to work out regardless of what happens.

laladypoet · October 2009

thanks again for all the vibes
