NikB #26 (tentatively moving to Piecing, again)

[NikB]

Hi all - thanks so much for checking in on me. Still working on that courage thing. I have been SO busy both at and after work I have barely had a chance to even catch my breath this week. (not using that as an excuse for "the talk" - more an excuse for why I haven't been on much!)

My mom and I are going to the Springsteen concert tonight after work AND tomorrow in San Jose, I am sooo excited!! It's a tradition we've had since I was 10, we haven't missed a local show of his. Going to be an awesome weekend.

Probably won't actually even see H until Sunday except while he's asleep, but I promise myself and everyone here I am psyching myself up for that conversation.

SD - thanks especially for the comment on detaching from the outcome. For some reason that wasn't "clicking" in my head and that helped a ton. (oh and I hafta tell you, your "hot monkey sex" comment made me laugh then gag... I'm taking it as a good thing that I was able to laugh at it for a sec ). I was having a very hard time picturing how to do this calmly and that detaching thought really helped.

Gotta run so I can get work done in time for BRUUUUUUUUCE tonight.

Thanks all. Happy Friday!!
