The first question my therapist asked was about the kidcats [View all]

The second was about how I was sleeping. I told him not much. I guess I look as worn out as I feel.

He was upset to learn my assessment appointment was pushed so far back and said he's going to take care of things and will call me in a day or so. That was a relief.

I think I cried just twice. Once when I told him about losing the kittens and once when I talked about my frustration with the appointment problem. He also advised I not make an appointment with the callous APN until I get the anxiety medication situation settled. Not a problem. I figure I won't be able to get an appointment soon so I'll just ask for my prescriptions to be renewed, in the mean time. I think they are a bit short staffed.

Meantime I am going to finish feeding the kidcats, try to think of something to make for supper, and then head to bed VERY early. It looks like the severe weather is going to pass to the south of Flint so that worry is off the list. I have 2 days to get as much outdoor work done before the heat wave hits and then figure out how to keep the outdoor fur babies as comfortable as possible.

Again, I am beyond grateful for everyone's kind words and support.

So we'll see.
