I'm sorry, Hil. I hope you manage to find some relief.
In case I have failed to mention it, TCG is such an adorable father. I just love watching him with ltc.
Congratulations to the class of 1999. You all proved more or less adequate.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Oh, duh, of course not. Man, I am off my game. I'm going to stop dispensing advice before I tell you to get your humours checked or get bled by a leech. (Two things I *cannot* refer you to in Cincy.) (Although if anyone used medical leeches, it would probably be in Northside.)
Well, that made me giggle, which helped a bit.
I'm sorry, Hil. I hope you manage to find some relief.
Thanks.

That's so sweet.
Someone on a vegan group on facebook posted a photo of chili cheese fries, and now I want chili cheese fries.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
So I started seeing a therapist who comes to the house. He works for a larger company so the first couple of weeks was a lot of paperwork, some of which went on about how if I wasn't on time for appointments it would be a reason to terminate therapy. However of the five times this therapist has visited, he's been one time once. Last week we switched to an earlier time because it would be easier for his schedule, even though it is not easier for my schedule with the baby, and he was 8 minutes late. He is currently 12 minutes late. He just now called to tell me he was going to be late, as I was typing this. I'm trying to fit him in in between feedings and Mom takes the baby out to keep her occupied during appointment times. If he is late he makes up for the time at the back end, which isn't helpful if the baby is already fussy. I'm not pleased.

Can you send him away? The chronic lateness is not okay, but this is extreme.

I'm hesitant to do that because I really need this therapy right now and having someone who comes to the house is easiest at the moment. I guess I'll give it one more week and see if he can pull it together. Honestly, chronic lateness has been a problem with every therapist I have ever seen. Usually when I go to them I end up starting to be late for appointments because I get so annoyed that they're making me wait, and then they get mad that I'm late and it becomes a big issue.

Yeah, that's tough.

In this case I at least can't be late because I live here.

Our wings are not tired.
Late people make me kind of crazy, but my best friend, and DH's whole family are always late so I am trying to deal with it better. Hope he was adequately apologetic at least!!
So you know that thing where you search on the internet for someone from long long ago. I remembered the real name of the man who was Bob's best man at my first wedding. He called himself Rodney, but his real name was Henry Smith Hamilton III. Was a funny guy from Chestnut Hill near Philly and kept his Wharton diploma on the bathroom wall. He was a DJ at the radio station where DH#1 and I worked back in 1972.
After we divorced Rodney kept in touch Bob, but they had lost touch quite a number of years ago. They actually had a falling out, but that is another story.
So I do the search thing and find that he committed suicide a day or two after the 2012 election after having threatened to do so if Obama won. Just stunned. He was such a sweet gentle hippy boy with red hair half way down his back when we were friends. He always had depression and anxiety issues, but killing yourself over Obama being elected. So sad.
It may be a while before I search for old friends again.
