had a good morning with my therapist. feeling pretty good. In my e-mail to you I compared saturday to childbirth...in a way its like it. I'm waiting around, preparing, knowing something is coming but not sure how it will go. with childbirth you have your birth plan, a vision of how you want it to go. that's what I feel like I'm doing here. of course, just like in childbirth, you can't predict, you can only prepare and hope for the best and do all that you have learned to make it go according to your vision. but things do deviate, and surprises do happen (have I mentioned my eldest ended in an unplanned c-section, trust me, I know surprises).
to change metaphors, I told my therapist I can't stop whatever train is coming down the track, but I can sure as hell get ready for it and not be standing there waiting to be hit.
