And Sammie's kidney's are doing just fine at concentrating urine, so she's home and happy.
Ugh, bonny.. What a nasty, icky mess - physically and emotionally.
Some people juggle geese!

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
We had a rat problem in our backyard a couple years ago and it was terrible and I felt like a terrible person. But WE dealt with it at once. Nasty!

Compassionately intolerant
I don't think they are necessarily hoarders, but not caring that their beautiful pooches could be in jeopardy certainly says something about their character.
I honestly don't get how some people prioritize.

Hubba hubba, Teppy! How much fun is that? I can't wait to see the rest.

Teppy, the pictures are gorgeous. I'm sure the professional ones are going to be wonderful.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Gorgeous, Teppy! But then, the camera does love you. Tim is a lucky guy!
sj, I hope you get over this, finally! I know it's wearing.
Yay! for Sammie! Atta girl!

Thrive to spite them
I know I'm probably boring everyone with my stupid dental stress and anxiety but it just hit me which tooth is being pulled. Which sounds stupid, I should know, but I don't actuallly look in the mirror all that often (that issue is something else) so I was realizing tonight it's the molar next to the bicuspid and it will probably be really evident I have a tooth missing.
Which is sending me into a whole different spiral of shame and self image issues. It's also my fear realized that my laxness in going to the dentist and dental care is what caused this. If only I hadn't been so wilfully irresponsible and lazy and such a selfish slob this wouldn't have happened.
And then I freak out that it's the first thing anyone will notice when I open my mouth and they'll be silently judging me about that. And my weight and the rest of my appearance and everything else.
This is currently why I'm in therapy,
I'm also concerned that I'm not going to be handle the removal tomorrow and will have to move to the next step which is general anesthesia and the doctors (and everyone else) wil think I'm being difficult on puprose and I'm not trying hard enough to be good.

Look into getting an implant, askye.

They've (drs et al) seen worse. Honestly. And if they are assholes about it, it is because they are assholes.
Focus on self care. This removal is part of it. You have a shitty tooth. It happens. I'm on my way to half my teeth being crowns, and my dentists keep assuring me that the decade of avoiding dentists just caused me pain, but didn't cause the need for the work. Fucking teeth were just doomed, the only difference had I not avoided them would've been less pain..and the cost spread out more. That's it. But it can be fixed.
Hell, my hygienist, who, you know, has done this for 30 years? Regular care and access? Her whole mouth is implants and crowns except for 2. And she's missing a molar because her jaw won't support an implant yet, or maybe ever. (I know all this because I was the freaked patient, so they shared with me. X-rays even.)
