Distraction and denial


I have a doctor appt today, nothing big, just going to my regular doc to pick up the biopsy prescription. Even still I'm really nervous. She'll no doubt do an exam and I'm just afraid she'll feel something that somehow indicates the news won't end up being good -- not very realistic, I know, but at the moment I'm in a mode of denial and I'd like to safely stay that way until it's totally over and I have the final results. I have an active enough imagination.

Anyway, after the appt I will be in MUCH need of distraction in order to slip back into said denial, so we may go out to eat (and drink) -- Mom's watching the kids again.

And further continuing in my on going pursuit of distraction: did my hair curly and felt up to putting a wee bit of effort into choosing an outfit. I've never worn the jacket before on the blog, it's from (where else) Target and I bought it last year.

Thanks again (and again & again) to everyone for being so loving and supportive -- it's more help than you can imagine.

See ya Monday.

You look great! The jacket with the belt really defines your waist.

Take care of yourself and remember there are a lot of us out here who are pulling for you.

This outfit rocks! I really love your hair too (wish mine could do that but it's too fine and wispy, unfortunately). I love how you belted the jacket.

Sending you happy strong positive vibes!!

Your hair's so great this way, K. Love it! Thanks for keeping on posting. I've been thinking of you even tho have not been over for a few days. The waiting must be hard, and I hope you're staying busy. Denial...why not, when all you're doing is waiting.

So thankful to you for taking time to visit and give me encouragement on my recent post, esp. now when you're worried. Thank you and please take good care of yourself.

I love your hair like this, Kayleigh, and that jacket & belt look fantastic on you!

Keep on keepin' on, my dear. My thoughts are with you.

Kayleigh said...

Sal, thanks, I will!

OTG -- no apolgies necessary, it's just so nice to "see" you around the blogosphere again. Thanks for the warm wishes, they mean alot :)

Mervat, thanks! I love your enthusiastic support :D

Modest Mom, thank you, and truly, every day I think about how all you wonderful blogger friends are thinking of me and it helps, it REALLY does.

notSupermum, aww, thanks...if I remember tho your hair has some wave, yes? I bet you could do this to your hair, too...mine's not all that curly, more wavy. I help it along by adding a few curls with a small barrelled curling iron. Shhh, don't tell anyone ;)

Lee Hovey -- wow, svelte, I'll take it, thanks! And faking it is definitely the order of the day...that really does work when all else fails.

Chuck, you always say such lovely, positive things...thank you!

Thanks so much Diane...all those hugs really help!

Shenanigans, gee, "super sexy" -- thanks! I'm glad I did my hair like this, it was worth the extra effort to lift my spirits.

Anchibride, thank you so much, all those positive vibes are MUCH appreciated!!

Nic, thank you....and that's high praise since I happen to think you have beautiful hair!

Sallymandy, thank you so much for your thoughtfulness, yes, the waiting is killer but I'm getting through it thanks to wonderful people like you. And I had to comment on that terrific post of yours, it was fascinating reading, you writing just flows so naturally. Great stuff, I hope there's more!

Sheila, (((HUGS))) -- thank you, friend, that means so much!

AGain, many, many thanks to each and every one of you!!!!!
