What Are You Feeling Today? Not Thinking, Rather Feeling! Can You Identify Yours?

So far this day has a good and early start.

Yesterday morning I woke in lots of scary and intense, kidney, belly and pelvis area pains. And, yet I was more frightened and inwardly negative towards considering then of going to what would've had to have been a local hospital. I fear still, ...it's just utterly useless and re-traumatizing for me to expect and pay for service there, affiliated and nearby. I felt / was powerless.

So far this day is still a good and still an early start. :) I feel all around somewhat improved and I'm going to take this day somewhat methodically in preparation for tomorrow's early meeting with the school and with some / any possible preparation for this coming week.
 
I slept well last night. Got up once to use the restroom, then went to turn on the TV (what I had been formally doing when I got up in the middle of the night) but recalled there really wasn't anything on TV I wanted to watch at 3am! Want I wanted was more sleep :) so went back to bed.

About 1/3 of the day has gone by (where I am) and I feel as if so far it has been the most normal day in my life during the last year!
 
I was doing pretty well today until my dog took off not once, but twice, and didn't come right away when I called her. Now I'm angry and upset. At her, at myself, you name it. I just wish she understood why I'm mad at her and don't want her near me. So torn. :mad::(
 
Freezing. Head hurts. Limbic still on high alert after phone call with brother. Still triumphant from handling call, and containing and maneuvering mighty energies without burying or exploding. I anticipated this and am not surprised. The world doesn't come to an end when I speak up, but part of me crouches tense ready for the "Apocalypse". It will not come. Someday all of me will know that.
 
Feeling nervous as I leave in a few hours to accompany my daughter to her appointment. I am hopeful the results are good and they find no remnant of the cancer. I want her to be able to move forward and to live her life like she envisioned it. One that is filled with her dreams and not one that is put on hold because of treatment.

Ya, I agree. It can be intense, instantly stressful, and so frightening to not know whether your dog is going to safely return. It's happened before with my dog as well Britt and I can recall how really upsetting it was. I watched mine nearly pass a back wheel safely.

I'm sorry with what occurred for you and your dog Britt and hope you're feeling better today and your dog is behaving.
