It is so nice to hear from both of you!!!! Yesterday was WAY better, a little voice in my head told me that the best way to deal with the traumatic cello lesson is just to PLAY instead of thinking and brooding about it. So yesterday I spent a couple hours in my apartment practicing (a big 180 for me, I've always practiced at school before, but I feel a little weird trying to do that now that I've graduated) and then went to yoga class and then one of my BFFs came over and we talked until 2 in the morning!!!
(((ali))) yes, that is basically my plan. I sort of feel like not dealing with my sitch for the moment, but if he reaches out in any way I will probably choose to respond. The full moon stuff really helped me, just to know that what I thought was totally devastating was something that was actually positive. And again, I am SO excited you are doing yoga now!
(((julia))) OMG... you made me laugh so hard about the Waltons!! I am glad you loved it! Actually, the part of Virginia I grew up in was very urban... right next to DC... so... not like the waltons at all!! thank you for your understanding about the transition. I was talking about it with my friend last night and she really encouraged me just to try to make it work for me to spend a little more time in Atlanta, where I can stabilize and feel safe, and let things settle down enough in my mind that I can make a good decision about what to do next. So that's what I'm thinking for now. I'm glad you loved Boston though If I move back maybe you can visit me on your way to Sydney??
