Sunday Reflections...


I'm trying to get myself motivated to get around and tackle a couple of projects around the house. The cool weather has got me not wanting to necessarily go out and do things in the yard and on the patio, but the sunshine is making it difficult to stay inside!

I had a very successful visit to the rheumatologist this past week. I started Enbrel injections that I'll do once a week...instead of a syringe, I have a single dose injection pen. Very pricey from what I've been able to find out. My prescription coverage through my health insurance will cover it...I will have a $30 co-pay but Enbrel has a co-pay program where I won't have to pay the co-pay for 6-months and then they have an assistance program I can also sign up for and see if I qualify for after the initial 6-months is up. Why not give it a try?

I'm happy to report that the pain in my right foot and knee are all but gone. There is still a mild soreness but the throbbing, burning, deep inside, pain is gone. The pain has been replaced with a nagging headache that comes and goes and a high pitch ringing in my ears that also comes and goes...I am due to go back to the doctor for a re-check in 3-months to see how everything is going. Right now, this injection has me feeling so much better, I'm ready to get back out and get into my walking program...I was down 10-lbs. in weight from my last appointment, so, the doctor said as long as I'm not hurting and feel strong enough, get out and walk, exercise is VERY important on all levels for someone with rheumatoid arthritis...I've been told that since I was diagnosed when I was 15-years-old.

So, I'm on the road to a much improved state of being with the new med. I can get back on track with my exercising and get back on track with my diet...I don't think I'll be in good enough shape to do the Tulsa Run on October 31st, but I'm giving it some serious consideration. The Tulsa Run does offer a 5-k route, which that might be well within my capabilities...we'll see, I've got to get back to seeing how it feels to do 3-miles again. That's going to happen today.

I am in LOVE with my yoga class...I know a lot of how I feel is because I adore the instructor...yes, I lust after her incredible body, but it's the overall persona that she is. She's going to go to Dallas this week and do her Personal Trainer Certification program. She'll be doing it at the Cooper Institute, which is one of the top Fitness Centers in the U.S. I was in such awe when she was telling us about it yesterday after class. How incredible is that?

I ran into a young that I helped get started in the biz yesterday as I was coming into the "Y" and she was heading out. It was one of those crossings where I realized who it was after I was past her and in the building. She was in a hurry and looked like shit, her face broken out in pimples...she looked much harder and older than the last time I saw her. I doubt seriously she recognized me, but at 29-years-old, all she's got going for her is her boob job. I say she's a "" because she is. She lacks terribly in class and etiquette...she indulges in recreational drugs, smoking pot and drinking...she's one of those gals that is the eternal victim rather than taking charge of her life and turning it all around. Yes, I say I got her started in the biz because I mentored her in the Dominant Woman role of BDSM. While she's an "okay" Dominatrix, she lets her fondness of the chemical additives detract from the purity of the D/s activities. I immediately think of the saying, "you can't make a silk purse out of a pig's ear." She's the classic example of that saying. I always hope she's doing well, but she didn't have her shit together back when I was her friend, I doubt seriously she's got it together now.

I've got to call the gal about the school desk and see when it is convenient to pick that up...I think it will raise my School Marm/bad student scenario to a whole new level!!

I'm still tossing around the idea of a Halloween Party. I've about given up on the whole deal, other than I will get a costume...just having somewhere to where it is the problem. Circumstances are such that it just may not be a good time to gather up friends and get together...the other turn of the coin is how far out there do I want to put myself...how much of a party do I really want to do and for whom?

Another cup of a coffee and it will be time to tackle the first of several projects today...I'm looking forward to a calm week ahead...
