Thank you! I called the doctor today & got him to order me some more cream. He only gave me a small tube before & as much as I had on me I needed a large one. This time he gave me one, it is better but not gone. My dog & I are both itching!! I think the dog is shedding her winter coat & that is what is causing her to itch. I've brushed her but I think it's going to take giving her a bath.
Tomorrow I have lots to do, my house is a mess, I need to wash clothes & the yard needs mowing. I'll just have to do what I can. I worked this week at a management company, they manage entertainers so that was fun. They really liked me & said they are picky about who they hire but when & if they have an opening they want me. They told me they were trying to figure out what to do so they could hire me. So, that was good news but who knows when that will come along.
No word from xh, I'm just trying to take one day at a time & leave it in God's hands! Not an easy thing to do but I'm working on it!
You and your dog both may be suffering from the allergy. If you dog continues to itch, you may need to call the vet. As for you, please use the cream and if it's not better in a day or so, maybe the doctor should give you a shot so that the medication works from the inside out.
N, take it thing in stride. Yes, your house may be a mess and the yard needs mowing, but tackle each project, one at a time. You'll get it all done....I know you.
I do hope that the management company pices you up permanently. You would do well there.
Take care and don't over do it!

Thank you all for the tips! My dog seems to be some better since I gave her a bath, for a short haired dog she sure had a lot of dead hair on her. She is shedding her winter coat & I had just brushed her again the night before but she still had a lot. She is better, still itching some but not as bad. I'm sure where she was itching it irrated right now. If she is not better in a few days I will take her to the vet. As for me, I'm better! Thank goodness!! That is bad stuff!! I still use the cream on some spots but I'm so much better.
Well, I got the yard taken care of on Saturday, that was a job! Today I got some of the house done. Still more to do in the house but at least I'm trying to do it little at a time & not try to do it all at once.
I'm still hoping a job will come thru but I feel a piece right now about that so maybe something will happen soon, no leads yet but maybe.
No word about ex since my ex SIL called. I grilled out again this past weekend & it sure is sad without him. He could grill so good, but I'm getting the hang of it. He taught me well & so far my stuff has been almost as good.
On Friday I will be going to my parents house & Saturday is the wedding, I dread that so bad!!! But, if I cry, I cry..... my sitch & then without the groom's mom being there is really going to be sad. I have decided to stay the week, b/c the next weekend is our annual meeting at my church there & it will start on Thursday night so I would just come back here on Sunday & turn around & go back on Thurs. so I might as well stay. It will give me more time with my parents & also a couple of friends would like to get with me while I'm home.
Again, I want to thank you all for being here for me. I would not have made it as far as I have without your support. I really appreciate it!! I will do my best to check in & post while I'm at my parents house.
No news to report other than I'm pretty depressed these past couple of days. Not exactly sure why, ex keeps popping in my mind & I just can't get him out. I really miss him so bad & just think about how close we once were & how much in love we were & how he could go off with someone he doesn't even know.
I'm trying to cut back on my antidepressants but I guess that is not going to work right now. I'm doing it slow but I guess I shouldn't cut back at all right now. I have this wedding on Saturday that is really going to be hard.
Ok, just wanted to journal a little bit. Sorry I'm down but I will get through it. Thank you for being here & listening!
I am sorry that you are depressed. I know how you feel, and the upcoming wedding will not help either.
You are still "fairly early" at this. Look at me, it has almost been four years and only now I start detaching more and more and I don't wake up anymore with my first thought being XH. But he is STILL very often on my mind and I get sad on some days.
I have the feeling that time does not completely heal the wounds but it surely helps. And GAL and a job also help. One day you will also get there.
I wish you strength for the upcoming wedding. (((HUGs)))
I don't think I've ever replied to you. For the most part, I've been staying off the boards for a while now. But for some reason, I feel like I need to reply.
I beleive you mentioned at one time that you are receiving "Charlene Cares" emails. Is that correct? I hope you are still reading them and taking them to heart. Have you been to her website? I don't even know if I'm allowed to mention it here. But, she has several tapes that she sells. I bought a book from her, and in the package they threw in a tape, and now I'm hooked. One tape she has is what to do when your husband marries the other woman. That may be a good one for you to hear. Everytime I bought from them, they always threw in something extra. One time, I bought 12 tapes, and they threw in an extra 10!
Just a thought because I'm not liking some "accept it" replies. This is your husband! A peice of paper saying "divorce" does not say "Give up. Stop praying."
I wish I could give you my personal email, but for sure I'd be banned. Are you on fb?

N, Please stop apologizing for feeling the way that you do. You are going to have ups and downs for quite some time. After all, the weather hasn't been the happy, chipper weather it should be either.
I'm glad you are feeling a bit better. The dog will recover and it will take time for the both of you to stop itching. Any way, it's one day at a time and doing things around your home a little bit at a time is so much better...tackle things as they come along and don't over load all in one day.
As for the wedding, yes, you'll most likely cry and be sad, but you know what? You will be there w/family and friends and they'll be supportive. Enjoy the time w/your parents.
Take care of yourself.
