finally taking control of my body

[Mandlegrot]

Oh no sorry to hear about your hound how does the insurance work? Will it cover you?

Can I be cheeky and ask...hmm that's a hard one!! I can't think of another word for cheeky...its like a term of endearment you use on kids 'you cheeky so and so' or 'cheeky monkey' its like someone that gets away with things because they are cute or something. So when someone says that, its like trying to be friendly and also realising that it might be a big ask or a bit of a blag, as it makes you 'cheeky' to ask it

thats the best way I think. But that's a hard one to define!!

The insurance won't cover this because its pre-existing. So what insurance is you pay monthly to have your dogs health covered. Mine will be $26.50 per month and if anything goes wrong, the insurance will help pay. For example, if my dogs teeth start hurting again and he needs surgery? Well insurance will pay up to $1,400 each year. They cover up to $14,000 each year for everything included in his healthy. Lets say he broke a bone, and it's $3,000 insurance will be pay $2,000 and I will pay $1,000. Honestly, I should've gotten this 5 years ago when I got my dog because the least I had to pay was $86.50 for anything so that adds up. With insurance, I'll save a lot of money. Sorry if this doesn't make sense.

And thank you for explaining cheeky, haha

......
I strongly dislike tea. I like peppermint tea. And it makes me go to the bathroom a lot.

Must try that..sounds like my cuppa tea! lol!

Sorry about your doggie..hope all is well now.

Nice loss there..well done.

 

[elm]

Sigh. Second night in a row where the tears are pouring down. I really really miss my grandma. It still hurts a lot.

 

[Emmaline]

Oh dear poor Elm! (((Hugs))) I think perhaps having lost your little pet has most probably made things worse for you.
I know that I feel very upset when I don't see or hear from my daughters very much but as I never had a close family from when I was young I wouldn't know the full extent of your distress but obviously it's a great wrench being away from them. Do so hope you will soon feel a bit brighter.

 

[elm]

Oh no Emm, my dog is still alive but he's having surgery in the morning. I just wish my grandma was still alive.

My sister texted me saying she's emotional tonight. Looks like me and her were both thinking about my grandma at the same time.

 

[elm]

Dropped my baby off at the vet. I was there for an hour and a half waiting to be told what will happen. He can be aggressive so I waited for that shot to kick in (made him throw up 3 times). I held him for 20 minutes until they took him and I cried hard. They were all really nice. Glad my sister was there. Come on 2pm...I get to call and see how's he doing and find out the price for the surgery and then go pick him up!

 

[elm]

262.10 dollars later = my dog drugged up = he's home and doing well.

And the couple who go to my gym and own their own business (the have 3 companies in different states) offered me a manager job. It's just to fill in the gap because another supervisor moved to their other company. I'll call him tomorrow to find out about the pay but she says its pretty easy and managers love their job....but it's only 30 hours a week. I want full time so I'm still on a hunt for a second job if I get this one.

 

[elm]

Looks like I got the job.....I should start by monday.

So freaking happy.

 

[elm]

 

[elm]

I declined the job.

 

[elm]

I'm craving junk food. Chocolate mostly. I will not give in. I seriously won't give in. Hurry time so I can go to the gym.

135.

[elm]

I bought 20 small plastic containers so I can prep my food for the week. You get 4 in a pack for $1 it was awesome. And my salad is 89 calories!

 

[elm]

21 minutes of kettle bell work out.
12 minutes of the rowing machine
10 minutes of the machine where your arms go on circle...no idea what it's called
And 6 sets of 10 of the rope...that hurt so bad.
And 81 minutes of swimming.

I have a feeling I will feel a lot of pain tomorrow. I'm excited!

 

[elm]

Roasted red pepper hummus and pretzels :135 calorie snack. Yum!

 

[Emmaline]

Good going on the exercise Elm... as they say..no pain no gain..or should that be loss!
