Hot and Cold sensitivity in one isolated part of my mouth (not the part I saw the dentist for last week)
which made me go see him today - and I almost kicked him when he put something cold on it. then they poked, prodded, x-rayed - with no apparent findings.
Having the proverbial rug pulled out on me this evening.
I know I've complained and said a lot in here lately, but after a conversation and some realizations this evening, I resolved to make some changes in my life. More than just trivial things like employment.
Suffice to say, one of the people I looked up to has turned out to not be the person I thought they were. That piled with a few other surprises from people in the last couple years have led me to question things in my own life. I don't want to make the mistakes they made. I guess this last one was just the biggest shock.
Talk is cheap though without action, and it's easy to fall into old habits. I certainly hope I don't though.
.... every single one of us makes choices and mistakes - you can't agree with everyones choices and its their choice to screw up or even what you may think is a bad choice may be what truely makes their life better for them. I'm awefully sorry you were shocked - I cant tell you how many times I've been shocked/floored by peoples actions - where in most cases even if I don't condone their action, Ive continued to be their friend. Hopefully your friends actions were not directed twords you. I somehow continue to believe in the greatter good of people but bottom line is none of us are perfect. (cept for cluey :wink: )
I guess I look at it this way. I'd give my right arm for what some people are blessed with having. To see them willing throw it away just kills me (not that I'm upset so much at them, I know people always seem to have reasons for things). Life is irony I guess. It just makes my decisions that much simpler, learning from others mistakes.
ooooh - Bodega Bay is so cool - I remember telling a friend (who originally told me to be sure to go there) about all the birds, and he says, well, duh! that's where Hitchcock filmed The Birds. My friend Scarlet and I stayed in Bodega Bay one night. The thing we both remember the best was the redtail hawk outside out hotel room and how I decided to "summon" him the next morning, by shrieking like a hawk, and sure enough, he came right out! We also spent a night at Serenesea in Gualala. Cool places.
having my truck literally stop running while Im driving down hill on Robert St! all my lights went off - no power steering
I got a tow and its in the shop -
turns out they are short staffed at the shop because of dear season
so I have to wait a day or 2.
its not the battery
the guy who towed it tried a dozen times to start it and said he didn't think it was the alternator either - could be the alternator, a short in a wire or worse. :frown:
That reminds me of a trip out west with my church. We had a van full of people, and the brakes went out while driving in the mountains. Turns out they'd just overheated, but still, that was pretty scarry.
Telling a friend about a dog that was rescued from abuse, abandonment and was to be euthanized that day due to having reached its limit of days at the shelter, and her jumping down my throat for my choice of terms, saying only shelters "rescue" animals, pet owners "adopt" them. My point was what a wonderful home this dog got during this fifth chance at life - there are several other parts to the story and I made that clear in my telling of it. To see that dog, now secure and loved, when it used to cower every time it went near any doorway (had been kicked out the door in its puppyhood), And, it was wonderful for me, to spend time with that dog last evening.
Apparently, this is another subject I can't discuss with this person, and frankly we are running out of subjects. My other point was, didn't everyone involved rescue the dog? The shelter gave it five days and one of its chances to live, and that is great.
we got Bucky from the Como animal humane shelter, over on Beulah lane....
and Chester before him, we got from a lady who had picked him up, on his "last week", and was housing him, until somebody came along with a better home...
that happened to be us.
before we got him, he had been in like 4 other houses, and kept running away.... and wouldnt listen to anybody....
the first people that had him, had a wide open parcel of land, so he didnt know any boundries...
so naturally when we first got him, he ran away a buncha times....and we kept bringing him right back home...
sometimes even having to pick him up from the shelter, because thats where he would end up.
eventually he learned where "home" was.... we gave him a nice long life after that.... we had him for close to 11 years, before he had to be put down.....
the lady next door to us, has 2 dogs - Maggie and Tucker... Maggie looks kinda like our Bucky, and Tucker is some kind of hound or another.... when she moved in, she owned Maggie already, and she was a volunteer at a shelter - and ended up finding Tucker through the same means....
I think I'd almost rather come accross a dog that way - through a shelter, than any other way... I feel like I'm doing some good.
first time I try it in months and I get this result after apparently cutting it wrong..
The idioblast cells close to the skin of the pineapple contain clusters of tiny needle-shaped calcium oxalate crystals known as raphides. When ripe, the cell walls are fragile and break easily, releasing the sharp crystals to irritate the mouth and throat.
I know what you mean. 11-11 is the anniversary of my dads death and also the day I lost my job at Diamond/Gillette. And the wird thing is we celebrate it now with a layoff party every year.
a guyfriend whose pretty close to me, just called me - in tears. He just got word that his mom's Hep C has come back - and it's really bad this time. (they had treated her, and she was able to come off her meds for a while)
anywho, it doesn't look good. They are running more tests this week, and he's going there (Colorado) for Xmas to visit. but to hear him - snot nosed, tears on the phone, just breaks my heart.
so many opportunities to do so many things today and I just can't get motivated :frown:
discin
halloween hoopla
go to a movie
stay in a cuddle up on the couch with movies
that huge garage sale in Roseville
clean the house
which made me go see him today - and I almost kicked him when he put something cold on it. then they poked, prodded, x-rayed - with no apparent findings.
They think it could be my jaw muscle.
yuk.

what cm said - good luck
