    Oh, yeah. Been there, done that. With all I've been through that one was the strangest. That table is like something out of a science fiction movie.

    The "freezing" isn't cold; it's just an anesthetic that numbs you so you don't feel the needle (much). It's over so quick you won't know what hit you. You will be sore for about a day. Just keep ice packs on it (frozen peas work well).

    I'll put frozen peas on my next grocery list for sure.

    One important thing I found out the hard way, put the bag of peas into a Ziploc or something secure. My cats were playing with little green things on the floor for weeks afterward

    Today's not started off well for me. I'm in one of those down cycles that seem to be more prevalent the longer this drags on. Tears could come real easy this morning, but can't do that at work. I truly do appreciate all of your comments and support. I'm going to see my counsellor tomorrow so perhaps she can help me deal with the wide range of emotions that are coming my way.
