I've decided to prepare for today's therapy session by watching the Michael Keaton 'Batman'

Seriously, it 's been a rough 3 weeks since my last appointment. It started with me worrying about my brother who drove across country in his 22 year old Saturn. Mind you, he still has to drive back and has already had to do a repair. Then my car started acting up and then things just spiraled. He's helping a friend who has a very unstable son and I'm worried about that dynamic.

Today is a real capper. I've taken in a sick little kitten. Her mom abandoned her and her 2 sisters. They have crossed the Rainbow Bridge, both in my arms. Now I'm hoping the 3rd one will be OK but I am preparing myself for yet another loss.

Long story short, after 2 intense days and 2 sleepless nights with kittens (one died yesterday morning, the other died 3 weeks ago) the surviving baby seems to be holding steady. Now, last night I thought I would get some sleep but Gryff, my house panther, wanted to comfort me. Suffice it to say that I got little sleep.

Then at 5:30 this morning, Gryff jumped up on a shelf that's in an opening between the hall and living room, hit a small ceramic base that then rocketed into the glass globe of a lamp, shattering it.

Oh, and the kidcats have been on a hunger strike because of the kitten.

Then I went out to feed the ferals and I got RUSHED, with one of them ending up getting into the house!!! Fortunately, that ended with zero drama.

Add to that all of the nightmarish decisions coming out of SCOTUS and realizing, full well, that the convicted felon will likely get most everything charge dismissed and just might end up back in the White House. Then Liberals will collectively have targets on our backs.

Suffice it to say, my stress and anxiety levels have passed the red line and are heading towards black out. Still another 5 weeks until I can get a medication assessment, though. By that time they might prescribe a straight jacket.
