Took Kyree to the vet. She'd broken the nail past the nerve and he had to sedate her to cut it. Took care of it and the rest of her nails, which weren't bad, but while he was there....

Gave her the wake up shot. He said she's take a minute, but when she lifted her head, she could get off the table and walk. She lay there FOREVAR! He banged doors, dropped tools, made all sorts of noise. She watched him, but refused to move. Finally he tickled her hind feet and she lifted her head. Lazy mutt was perfectly fine taking a nap on the cool metal table.

We also found out she's missing some teeth. Apparently these particular teeth tend to get lost when dogs pull on wire. Like the wire surrounding our fence. The fence that Houdini dog keeps finding new holes in.

Feeling like a moron. Noticed that the car was overheating. Like OMG, WE'RE GONNA BLOW UP ANY SECOND kinda overheating. I made haste for the house and called the Father-in-Law. He came over, looked under the hood, and promptly pointed out that the reservoir and the radiator were basically bone dry.

3/4 gallon of antifreeze and a half gallon of water later and the car was once again running fine.

Part of me knows that I could have figured that out for myself once upon a time.

Work's changing. We had a meeting today. It started out with us wondering if we were still going to have jobs. Turns out, we do, but our schedules are changing. Looks like I may be switching to a 7-3 schedule. As in 7PM to 3AM. I should be okay with it. I'm a night owl anyway.

We also found out that the Lawton Casino will be getting the new machines in first. These machines are going to mean they need fewer cashiers and some of us will likely be looking for new work or be getting transferred to another department. Part of that decision will be based on attitude and attendance.

But since we're still in a holding pattern for the new machines, this means I still have a few months to get myself either settled in deeper or get myself to a point where I can transfer to another department.

If that means I have to work till 3AM during the week, I'm game. They said weekends looked like the shift would likely be 5PM-1AM which is only an hour off what I work now, so no biggie there.

I ran from noon until 6 today. And I'm out of my Cymbalta. The pharmacy told me the insurance wouldn't cover it until April 11th. The headshrinker upped my dose, which apparently wasn't pre-approved by the insurance company. So tomorrow I have to make a million calls, trying to get the Doc to call the insurance company, the insurance company to notify the pharmacy, and the pharmacy to fill the script.

I also have to go get blood drawn for a pregnancy test and then get my Depo shot.

I'm tired. Pooped. Run down and run out.

Poor doggie!

You do know the trick of turning on the heater to help you cool the engine some until you get to your destination.

Anyway here is to a better looking week.

Keep an eye on your reservoir. If it ran dry once, you likely have a leak somewhere. It could be a pinhole venting steam, but it adds up. Better to pop the hood while it's running and you have good light and look for water.

Bone dry? Yikes!

Oh gods- whatever you do, do NOT let yourself run out of Cymbalta for more than 24 hours. The withdrawl symptoms are the most evil things ever.

Spring of 07 I went off of it and felt like it nearly killed me.

Too late unfortunately. But I'm off here in a minute to pick up my refills and get back on. I foresee a nap in my future.

Oh man, I'm so sorry. The brain zaps were the worst part for me.

It's amazing how much difference a day and a half can make. I would have been fine, except I didn't know that my Insurance has to pre-approve EVERYTHING. It just happens that I ran out, got my new script, and had to wait for pre-approval all at the same time. There will be planning next time, oh yes...there will be planning.
