2:41 pm:  Now back to my story�Gunther is getting a brother!!!!!!!!  His name is going to be Gryffin.  He�s a chocolate color point, whereas now Gunther thought to be a seal mitted, she said, should be classified as a chocolate mitted because he�s gotten lighter in color.  So I will have two Hershey chocolate kisses to love.  Yay!  She said that she can�t see Gryffin going to any other home than mine.  She said that it�s also a blessing that I called when I did because she�s had a brother left out of the litter and it happens to be Gunther�s full brother from another litter.  So that is bittersweet.  I just hope that Gunther can adapt to having another kitty around as he is the jealous type.  I just have to come up with $550 for him now and we�re set.  I�ll have over $1000.00 worth of cat in my house! But they are priceless and you can�t put a price tag on the love and comforting companionship of an animal.  That�s my thought anyways.  Also Gryffin is show quality so I can enter him into the ring at cat shows and Gunther is pet quality so I can also enter him in that category so I have two show babies.  Gunther is considered show quality because he has a little higher marking on his back legs.  But I tell him all the time that he is perfect and unique to me because I know that he�s the only one that has those miss makings in those very spots so I know that he�s the only one like it, and I got him.

It�s so freaking hot in this hell of a  house.  I opened one of the roommates-from-hell bedroom door because she has an air conditioner in there just for her own pampered large caboose.  I put the child gate in front of it so her pain in the rear dogs couldn�t get out.  They crapped all over the floor again.  That�s what she gets for never training them or disciplining them.  Severs her right.  Those dogs are ugly as sin but she loves them even though they stain her carpet and get into everything.  I guess those are some dogs only and I mean only, that their mother could love. I love animals and dogs included but I can't handle those two.   Well, better go do some laundry. I also have to fill out all those stupid patient forms for the surgery so I can get in for an appointment.  Mabel sent me a bunch of stuff about the surgery and I asked her if she regretted it. She said that she never has regretted it and she�d do it a hundred times over if she had to.  I told dad that I was going to get it done and he said that I should just exercise and eat right.  GRRRRR!!!  That�s just like telling someone that has heart disease to heal themselves. Well, it�s finally starting to cool off in here, thank the Lord.  Gunther is so hot that he�s lying in front of the fan.

1:30am So has it been forever or what since I've written in this thing? I am going to write the condensed version of events from the past few months:
***Parents came down and moved me into my new apartment
***Gryffin came home to live with Gunther and I
***Gunther turned 1 year old in November
***I quit Wal-Mart in December (I didn't need that stress - I won't go there about that place)
***Do not officially have diabetes but am close - have been put on insulin supressors
***Love living in my own apartment
***Have bills up the ass that I can't afford to pay
***Am only 4 dietician appointments and 2 pshych evals away from getting a surgery date

I have been attending Gastric Bypass support groups at the hospital every month.  I have 7 appointments alone this month in regards to this surgery.  One of the is for an ultrasound though to see if that 3 1/2 x 3 1/2 inch cyst on my left ovary is getting bigger or going away.  PCOS sucks!  It makes my body over produce insulin which turns to fat.  And the funny thing is to lessen the symptoms, you have to loose weight.  I think that has to be the biggest catch-22 ever that mother nature has presented upon me yet!

I have scheduled my third dietician appointment and have a couple of shrink appoitments for my eval in the next 3 weeks.  After that is completed, I can call the gastric bypass coordinator and get in for a consult appointment.  Then it's waiting forever to get in for a surgery date.  I just want to do it this year before my insurance company changes it's policies like so many others are. The guidelines are becoming so strict so that it's almost impossible to get approved for.  I am mega tired as I've been sitting here transferring my journal to this webpage.  It's now 2:07 am and I am going to hit the hay and snuggle with my fur babies.  I love them so much.  I don't know what I would do without them.....
