Let’s get real for a moment. I panicked, oh yes I did.
I was getting ready for work and decided to check my face using the mirror that magnifies 10 times. I was specifically trying to see if I had unwanted hair growing on my upper lip *wink*. To my utter amazement I saw brown spots and spider veins…on my face!
This is where I began to panic and my stream of thought went something like this. “What if one of my kids gets married and I look Old? Wait what? Remember when you were 40 years old and you saw your mom’s legs peeking out from under my dress? Oh yeah, and when I turned 50 my mom’s hands were attached to my wrists?” read more
Everything was ready. Another therapist would be seeing my clients. My surgeon was confident. I was excited that I would be walking within two to four weeks without limping or pain in the knee.

It happened again! Somehow my blog for January just disappeared. Poof it is out there somewhere floating on the super highway called the Internet. Did I do what my 24 year old said to do and back it up? Nope, I did not. Did I write it in a document first and then transfer it over here? Ummm, NO! Why am I discussing this on my blog? It is quite simple really I am having a grief reaction. That’s right, I am grieving the loss of something. We all do this several times a day with the loss of our keys, missing an appointment, being put down or maybe the loss of a pet, a dream, or bigger still the death of someone we loved. read more
