I received an email from an "anonymous" llama stating that he was being terribly abused and neglected. Not treated as well as a certain wooly or overly-hugged koala; he would love to be shipped to my home, where I have lots of room to love and will not neglect him. jus sayin

Nice try, there, lady. Thought you'd pull the guilt strings, eh? Well it didn't work. Pepito ain't going nowhere. He's my right-hand llama.

Besides, the other guys would all understand. Everyone has a soft spot for Willy the Wooly. After all, he's extinct!

Sorry you got hit Megs!

I need to get me one of those buckwheat eye things - I've been looking for an eye mask for a while, but I can usually only find the lavender kind, and I'm not too keen on lavender.

And yes, Kitties are a big help when the beast hits.

Hope you are feeling better today my dear!!!

Hugs!

What a colorful post! I love the inclusion of photos. I often go for my right-hand lamb, Lamby. I've had her since I was an infant and, though I occasionally feel a bit babyish, like to cuddle with her when I'm feeling beaten down and sick. (I'm nice to her in times of health, too! ;) )

Yes, kitteh cuddles can be very helpful. Love the wooly mammoth too!

I really like #8 the best! You must have an awesome husband. Thanks for this post. Great steps to being gentle with ourselves.

Thanks Diana - yes, a husband who understands chocolate is worth his weight in... chocolate? Gold? You name it.

I also hate Imitrex--it makes me vomit and makes my joints ache like crazy. However, I've had MUCH better success with Maxalt. It has the good parts of Imitrex without the bad side effects. I've tried all the triptans, and Maxalt is the one that is best for me. I suggest you try the others until you find one you can tolerate better than Imitrex.
