how very painful......i can't imagine the pain
bobby

i didn't think of that but since i was very little i always loved animals...even when i got bitten.

Even when the kids are around sometimes the animals get more attention.

Mainly because my kids are older and not here a lot.

Angel isn't happy he is wanting more attention it seems than he is getting.
Now as long as he doesn't get in the way of my fan at night while I sleep
he gets plenty I hope. But that fan is my link to air.

I'm a licensed driver again!!! :):):):):)

It's a MASSIVE RELIEF that this long, awful ordeal is FINALLY over!!! :):):):):)

I got to the DMV 10 minutes before they opened, but there was already a line of at least 40 people outside. My hearing form had #17 on it. I waited over 4 hours before my name was called…
When I entered the office, the hearings officer simply said, "You're all set, Kathryn," handed me 2 pieces of paper, and told me to take it to the green window. Apparently everything she needed was on the computer and I didn't need any of that ****ing paperwork. After 4 hours I was in there less for than 30 seconds and it was over with.
At the green window I was given an express ticket and filled out an application while I waited for my number to be called. I had my license back $500 and less than ten minutes later, but had to wait another 20 minutes for my cab to arrive.

I had to have the cab take me to my appointment with gastro and I got there by the skin of my teeth. I know that I have multiple upper GI problems so they were able to convince me to have the upper GI. I've had one before. I'm not worried about it, just not happy about it. That's going down next month on the 24th. I guess they didn't call me in for an earlier appointment because my PCP's notes were really focused on the constipation? They said I should have called them directly. Apparently this doctor did my first upper GI.

I've been taking cabs frequently for a year and a half because of all of my appointments and I've gotten to know and like a lot of the drivers. I said goodbye to two of my favorites yesterday. The guy who took me to the DMV was so happy to do it… he even stayed a little later yesterday so he could be the one to pick me up. They're good people, and I will miss them.

I'm going for a short drive today, and the first thing I'm going to do is drive through Dunkin Donuts and get an iced coffee! I used to go all the time and it's something that has become a very rare treat because I haven't been able to get out. Then I'm going to the butcher shop… that's been a long time, too. I want to cook up some real steaks tonight to celebrate my victory at the DMV :)

I'm really looking forward to talking about what what's going on, what I'm doing, or how I'm feeling vs. talking about trying to get my license back all the time. All the paperwork's going in the filing cabinet today when I get home. I don't want to see any trace of the ordeal. It's all over now, and time to put the whole thing to bed :):):)

I am so happy for you that you are done with all of that.
yeah!!!!!!
4 hours must have been such a long wait....ugh!
but you did it.

glad that you were able to say good bye to a couple of your favorite drivers. that was nice.

june 24 is a long time to wait for your upper GI....

steaks sounds like a lovely way to celebrate.

Wonderful news Kay.

Hip Hip Hooray.

As it turns out I had zero confidence problems driving and I made every maneuver aside from parallel parking!

I got my iced coffee and thoroughly enjoyed it! :)

I decided to vacuum the disgusting car to the best of my ability, which isn't that impressive, but it's better than nothing and my husband will still be happy. I will be sore tomorrow. Afterwards I got it washed and sprayed "new car smell" under the seats.

I did hit the butcher shop, where I bought 2 beautiful filet mignons :) I made mashed last night, but I think I'm still going to make potatoes again… roasted.

I ran out of half and half this morning and was able to pick some up at the convenience store myself instead of asking my grumpy husband to do it for me on his way home from work :)

I was only out for about 2 hours, but I felt free as a bird… :):):)


Unfortunately, the front passenger side window won't go down… more $$$$… just what we need! There's a recall on the car that needs to be taken care of, so I made an appointment to get that fixed on Monday and get an estimate to fix the window. I hate to give up the car so soon after getting my license back, but if the window needs to be fixed, it needs to be fixed. I hope the ****ing window just starts working again this weekend so I can put it off and just have the recall taken care of. Someone from the dealership will bring me home when I drop off the car and pick me up when it's finished for free.
My husband's going to be super ****** when I tell him :( I really hope the window starts working again…
