You'll be sent lots of positive, NED thoughts at 10 am!!!!
You know what? I think sometimes I start stirring up "the worst" thoughts before exams, scans, etc just to get them over with. Do you think we just expect the worst and then get our minds worked up to "just get over with it"! Aren't we humans something else??? Why don't you just dream up some "mountain top" thoughts for today and have a good ol' time today? Maybe have a pretend celebration for something or other! Sometimes I celebrate the dogs not having fleas!!!!! Makes a good enough reason for me! Lots of love, ma
