Today was a Good Day!

Tuesdays are always my busy days.  Hubby gets paid and then I do most of the running around.  Errands and what not.   I had an appointment today to start the Depo Provera shot.  My gynecologist suggested that is what I should do to help my irregular menstrual bleeding.  So I had some time to kill before the doctor and I went to Planet Fitness.  I spoke with a new friend about joining and she is already a member there.  My therapist also suggested it.  I have a feeling I am really going to like it there! I didn't sign up just yet but I am going to next week I believe.  It's a money issue. It's not expensive after I pay the initial start up fee.  Only $10 a month!   After that I went to the doctor.  The nurse took me in and we chatted a bit.  Come to find out, the Depo Provera shot is NOT good for someone who has depression or psychological issues.  I didn't tell my gynecologist about my hospitalization.  I tend to always forget that depression, psychological issues and hormones all go together.  It also causes weight gain.  So I said no way.  I am not doing this.  I just got out of the pysch hospital I told her.  She agreed and confirmed it with the doctor too.  So I am to call or go back and tell him I want the oblation done.   It will be difficult because I have a separated uterus.   I have two canals.  The doctor said it could be done though.  But he wanted me to give the Depo shot a try first.  I had to borrow money from my parents twice mind you to pay for the visit.  I spent the first part my Mom sent me so my Dad sent it to me again.  I spent the first part on helping my Dexter kitty with his urinary tract infection.  That was in my very first blog.   Well, I have lost 3 pounds so far and that was with me on the scale wearing sneakers!!   While I was waiting for the doctor to see me I typed up this memo on my phone.  

You are beautiful!!
You are a good person.
You will get thru this.
You will FIGHT this bipolar disorder!!!
Remember how CARING you are!!!
You WILL lose this weight.

I am proud of myself.  The nurse said I was inspiring her!   That's the best compliment I have got in a long long time!  I hope tomorrow is just as good as today was for me!
