Damn sick of hearing about Mr. T Woods and his affairs. He's like last year's Amy Winehouse, never out of the headlines. The latest thing on the radio about him was the excuse he did what he did because of what his father did and he was distressed by it. If he saw he own dad cheat on his mum, saw and felt the pain, yes you could say he saw and replicated that, equally you could say he saw the pain caused and vowed never to do it. You are responsible for your own actions and to like father ... like son , well I don't think it's black and white, a lot of it depends on yourself.
In my own world, my dad cheated on my mum am I going to do the same thing ? I saw the pain it caused and the trouble and it made me more determined not to do the kind of things that made me hate him. He's also a compulsive gambler spending most of his life in a casino, I feel so much revulsion that I've never stepped foot into a Casino ever.
For the last few months my neck and shoulders have been killing me. I went to the gym with the Hubs for a couple of weeks thinking it would help ease the pain. Turns out the gym only aggravates my neck and shoulders. AWESOME.
I went to the chiropractor last week thinking it would help, but it only provided temporary relief. Temporary as in a couple of hours. Sigh. I made an appointment with a regular doctor. I hope she doesn’t just prescribe pain meds because that’s not what I’m looking for. My neck and shoulders issues went away when during my reformer pilates classes last year and I think I need to start those up again. They are just so dang expensive! We’re in a recession, there has to be SOMEONE out there that offers reasonable rates.
I would also like to ween myself off of my coffee addiction, but dude, if this cute little bear can’t even do it, how do you expect me to go cold turkey?
Since I'm going to San Diego soon, I looked at Groupon's website and saw teeth whitening for $185! Total score after looking at the Yelp reviews. Usually I wouldn't but I just inquired it to my DDS and she wanted to charge me $500. I haven't bleached my teeth since I got my braces off and it's time for a re-bleach!
So since I am buying and selling (still) on Amazon, I winded up selling my CatGenie for $225.00... which includes like $400 of stuff I've bought - including a $100 cartridge resetter. Shipping it is going to be a bitch, but whatevs, it's better than me throwing it away and getting nothing out of it. I went to a store down the street and got more boxes. Since I'm going to San Diego/Mexico, I bought them a new hi-tech kitty box:

Growing up our family never really celebrated Xmas, we didn't give or get any gifts, have a turkey dinner, maybe send some Xmas cards. My dad was at home on Xmas day because the casino was closed. I never had the shock of finding out Santa Claus does n't really exist. Every year during Christmas something was sure to happen the Christmas decorations he always made an effort to put up, the Charlie style way of course.
We never had a Christmas tree at home (one year me and my siblings pretended the potted plant was a Christmas tree, wrapped our own presents to put underneath it), but we did have the fairy lights for a tree. Which were taped to the top of the living room wall. After a week or so the tape would peel away leaving bits of the lights dangling, coming off. In later years, the fairy lights became disco style lights.
