Mental stuff and a pet tag

[nepenthe]

 

Should’ve found myself a counselor sooner. Should’ve done it back when as my health benefits kicked in. Two years ago. It’s free for the first 3 sessions, a $20 co-pay and a $500 deductible.  It’s straight forward and affordable on my income and why, why did I ever put this off?

As for finding a counselor, that’s another story. I called my general practitioner, who is amazing, for a recommendation and I called that lady last Thursday. I didn’t hear back from her until this past Wednesday at 4 PM. On the one hand, she was my doctor’s rec. On the other, she’s really shitty about returning phone calls. Have tried contacting her since, leaving her a message telling her explicitly that I have all of Thursdays and Fridays off, I have my phone on and will be able to take her call anytime, and yet no word.

I don’t think I can take work advice from someone who has the luxury of a business so lucrative she can still afford not returning calls w/in 24 business hours and seems to work only three days a week.  But enough of that. Set an appointment w/ another counselor for the fifth of Sept. and left messages for two more.  Will try these, see how things work out. If not, I live in a big city; there are others.  

In happier news, Coco is getting better by the day (in fact, I have a bundle of Coco on my lap at this very moment). It’s been almost a year since I last had a cat in my lap. Nothing against Ampersand! She’s a great bed buddy (unlike Coco who just wants to sleep on my face and kneed my hair into knots) and so much fun to play with, but I’ve missed having a lap cat. We’ll get her ears all cleaned out and hopefully once Coco feels better, she resume grooming herself. I do not want to resort to giving her baths. It’s also time to order her an ID tag. Etsy to the rescue!

Oooh. I really like #1, especially the one with the stars. And #3 (same artist?). And #4...

I'm leaning heavily towards #1, too. It's cute and practical, as it allows for the most information on the tag (s).
