Minnie --

It's so good to hear your positive experiences with acupuncture! I'm really interested and hopeful that it will be positive for me as well..but I have to say that last night didn't go well at all..

I had told h I would be home around 6:15 but I had misjudged how long the appt would take (thought it would be about an hour but it was almost 2!) so the whole time I was completely freaking out (not good!). I hadn't told h where I was going (because I was nervous about that too!) and that just added to my anxiety. I called h as soon as the appt was done and he was totally cool, only had been worried about me, was I ok, etc....but the whole appointment felt very stressful. also, and this is not a reflection on the acupuncturist at all...I started feeling very uncomfortable because he's a man...I just ended up being left with a really uneasy feeling...so this AM I called him and told him I was cancelling my next appointment and why...he seemed fine with it, was very understanding but acupuncture makes me stressed out!!! I have a call into another person (a woman this time!)

Anyway...that's my tale...I got home, we had thai food, and then watched the greatest sports event in history!!! What a tremendously awesome game!!!!

Positives for the day:

1. h did a TON of things around the house...it was amazing how much he accomplished!

2. h was completely cool about me being late coming home, was totally fine with the acupuncture discussion, etc

3. after the red sox won, h and I celebrated with champagne! h said something about never giving up on the underdogs and then thanked me for sticking with him (an "underdog" )

4. AOS -- h was very appreciative of me taking out the trash

5. QT -- need I say more??? HOORAY FOR THE WORLD CHAMPIONS!

6. WOA -- noted and appreciated his work around the house

7. PT -- good hanging out time on the couch

Looks like we're back to normal in Beantown...gonna start getting more sleep, that's for sure!
