Little Miss Sad

I have that stuck in my head. Googling shows it's a song, a play, a doll... Too often lately, it's been me. I have this big problem of being disappointed when people I thought I could count on fail me. Two of those 3 docs (one was just a jerk) did it. Lately it's been the Miracles guys - Dan and Dave. I've told both about my having Dercum's. Dave said he'd catch me later or drop stuff off. I dropped stuff off after not seeing him for a while. No word since. I suspect his super niceness is just a facade!

Dan was another story. I emailed him twice - once telling him I have it and once saying "need help" and explaining that I can no longer do the exercises I have been doing because it makes Dercum's react. Could he please help me find ways to work out without impacting my joints? He said give him some days I could meet and he'd find time. I gave him days, he never answered. Well, he answered with a promotion for his next event. I dropped off materials last week. Still no answer about what I can do. Last time I went to work out I just felt sad. Really sad. Little Miss Sad!

What do you do when people fail you? I know I have high expectations but how do I misjudge character like that? I guess that's an issue for analysis...

Meanwhile, I am doing okay. The support group is wonderful as are my friends and family. My "little ms. kick butt" has returned so all will be well now. :-) It is fascinating almost daily to see what new things pop up (and out) on my body. I bruise easily now. Last week's show n tell was the 3" by 4" bruise I got by bumping a shopping cart!

Ann and I went to Indy Friday and found way too many goodies at the HPB sale! How we love those! Carol and I went and saw "Julie & Julia" today. (By the way - I have the frequent moviegoers card now and am saving up for free snack bar items. Yay!) A nice movie. Meryl Streep was EXCELLENT as Julia! I miss Julia's enthusiastic take on life! I had two redbox movies. One was strange but enthralling. The other was "Paul Blart Mall Cop". I wasn't sure if I would like that and it definitely had its stupid moments but what a great story! I always love when the underdog wins in the end!

Hey! There's a good motto for the Dercum's group - the underdog wins in the end! YEAH!

Hope you all are having a good long weekend.

Take care!
