Day 20 y’all!!! 
Feeling good about the days but still a bit down. I’m having a hard time dealing with other people’s actions, people in my family and close to me. I used to be high as a kite and in my own world now I’m super aware of what is going on and I don’t like it. I’m going to try to pull myself out of this mood I’ve been in. Sorry for being a negative Nancy. 
🤷🤦 Have a Fabulous Friday everyone!!!

Man that is such a good way of putting it and it’s so true. I think that’s why I a lot of us are here. I’ve never heard it said that way before and I love that quote, I might have to steal it at some point.

Day 5. Hungover You remember those days somewhere in the 4-14 zone, where you feel like you drank too much, but you didn’t? I didn’t and hopefully it will pass because I need a sharp brain as the college semester nears an end.
I was musing with my teens about what my life would have been like if I hadn’t had a parent who encouraged drinking and was raised to believe I was someone special and worthy. Her reply, “Well, if that had happened, I am sure we wouldn’t have been born. You never would have put up with Dad’s crap. So, thanks for for dealing with that so we can exist.” Touché, young padawan. Touché!
@Thirdmonkey - I love this so much for you! I am glad you found a reason to de-Scrooge. 
@anon74766472 - That’s a bummer. I am glad it’s still working. Do you feel secure that it won’t happen again?
@Lisa07 - What the what? Feet massages? How old is she? I want to be mad at my kids FOR YOU. 
How old?
@Mno - Glad that you are on the mend!
@Tommo Congratulations! That’s fantastic! Complacency kills, man! Keep it up!
@Sunny11 Congratulations, that a huge milestone!
@Bomdhil - It’s good to see you back at a week, Thomas! Keep on truckin’!

I have no other choice as to as I am too lazy to put into my celler every day 
and I think she is too ‘scared’ to break sth now.

I think I feel something similar these past few weeks. Some days I forget that I am in this process and I cought myself shaming for no reason - until I realize I’m in my old shoes, the ones in which I always felt too small to fit-in. Now I know (but didn’t I always knew?) and feel that there’s no shoes to fit in, I am already walking. It’s happening now, life is live, the camera is on - no time to seek and find the right shoes, just tight the laces and go.

I am so angry with her. She’s 27 @EarnIt but has disabilities so about a 12 year old level. She does nothing while I work my ass off and she expects to be treated like a princess. I guess that’s my fault for spoiling her as a small child. Ugh!

Day 67: Bright and cheery wake up today! Skipideedoodah! Thank you, universe. My ol’ man Mucho Chucho dog has a blood draw to see if his heart meds are causing any complications. He has also lost some weight and his spine, ribs and hip bones are much more apparent, which is worrisome. He eats fine, in fact he seems hungrier and begs for treats and human food more insistently. His heart must be working super hard. 
My other pup Miss Lupe had a regression in her mysterious spinal/hip issue that appeared suddenly summer before last (she was fine one minute and was completely paralyzed in one leg, dragging it around the next, but over several weeks regained about 80-90% mobility). She had an episode and fell and it shook her up. She’s been moving more hesitantly and hopping with that leg. The cold weather might also be making her stiff and sore, so we are doing stretches and massages again. Cuddles and extra love and treats all around, and for Mami, too! I postponed my sugar reduction for now and am just trying to make healthier choices throughout the day but have a treat now and then (just not the whole bag), and make sure I exercise as a stress relief. Arthritis flare seems to have calmed down but my new normal appears to be stiff and sore hands - it feels like I can’t stretch them enough! Thanks for reading if you got this far…it’s helpful to get out some of my lingering worries of the day. I appreciate any and all good vibes for my pups. Big love your way!

I need to fucking vent mother fucking doctors and pharmacists… You speak to your fucking doctor, you tell them all the shit that’s going on and you ask for your prescription you go to your local chemist to pick up the medication that has been prescribed to you… And they now won’t release the fucking medication… One of them medication keeps me from being a hyperactive freak where I’m bouncing off the walls. Another keeps my tics from well not so fucking overpowering that I can actually do shit during the day… You’d think that after you’ve been on them for well over 7 months now they are telling me I could overdose on the amount I’ve been given how??? And why???
I’m stressed and I hate dealing with all this knowing that the surgery will close in 2hrs what’s the bets I don’t get my medication… Oh this is gonna be a fun fucking weekend… This is where I could potentially relapse, this is where impulsive Danni, chaotic Danni the don’t feed after 12 Gremlin Danni decides its fun to do stupid stuff!!!
Oh day 104… I give up on shit going my way!

Thanks.It really is disgusting thinking about it. It’s funny how the guy didn’t seem too concerned because it happens all over the place up in the mountains. He seemed very knowledgeable and confident he can fix the problem. I already got 2 dogs and 4 cats so I got those bases covered. And my terroir barks at delivery guys before they even get on my street 
. As long as they stay under the house we are good.

That really sucks. I thought that shit just happened over here. I always assume European health care is so good! I guess it’s shit everywhere. I hope you can get your issues worked out.
