I forced myself to think about other things today. I concentrated on work, and looked forward to Valentines Day with my sweetheart. When injection time came around, I went and laid in my bed and while my boyfriend set everything up for me. Picked a spot on my arm, and he pressed the button with NO WHINING! And.. surprise surprise.. with no anxiety, no pain! Needless to say, I am pretty proud of myself right now.
I'm not a big Valentines person. I'm not big on the romance and mushiness that accompanies this holiday. That being said, today was perfect. My boyfriend got me the most amazing gift. He walked my dog this morning, after work, AND he's going to walk him before bed. This is the best. This means I got to take longer getting ready this morning, didn't have to rush back to walk him right after work, and I won't have to venture out in the rain before bed. THE BEST! Not to mention, I also was the recipient of a yummy home cooked dinner. I am a lucky girl!!!
And now for the mega cheese. I always make fun of these people who stick their photos in these tacky cheesy frames. So, here is my Internet tribute to Valentines day in a cheesy tacky frame:
Happy Valentines Day everybody!!

You are right about the mental thing and being in a good place. It really does help.
ReplyDeleteNot sure if you know what the medicine is made of... but its pretty funny when you think about it. It is Chinese Hampster Ovarian Cells (not even joking-its on th box!). Not long after I started that hampster movie was coming out- G Force or something like that and my Mom would laugh all of the time because she was picturing me as that little hampster going "Holla!"- anyway, its a big joke in my family now and I seem to get cards with hampsters a lot! :) Just a funny little side note for you!
Happy shot day~ you will do great!
