Feeling better this morning than I did yesterday. Looking forward and thinking positive thoughts.
This morning W was in the kitchen when I got up. While I made coffee she started talking to me about her financial situation and spent a good 5 minutes unloading her frustration with the Holistic Treatment center she works at part time and how the owner has been giving her very few referrals and has been difficult to deal with lately. I just listened and validated. Not my problem.
Then she went on to ask me how I was 'feeling' about her being here, saying that we're 'one in a million' saying that most people couldn't live together under these circumstances. I said I was fine with things and not to be concerned.
She said she was worried that I thought she was watching my every move but that wasn't the case.
Then she said that she was so glad to be here because she really missed being with the girls, and that she feel like they really need her in their day to day life. I told her that I appreciate that she's here and all the things she is doing.
She told me that she thinks I spend too much time working and not enough time getting out of the office. Basically GAL.
It was a positive exchange and she wasn't in her 'detached' voice. She was present.
Anyway, thought I throw this out there. As I said, I'm in a better mood today.
