Looking for Advice

[gutwrenching]

Rocked - once again thank you. I'm a complete stranger typing on a computer but you've really been there for me the last few days, along with sandi, lost and others. It has meant a ton to me, I literally have no one else to talk too about this. If you remember earlier in my stitch there was a female co-worker who I talked with and then people said cut it off. I did. Then turned it back on a little via e-mail, then stopped again. This particular co-worker is not around, out of town for about 6 weeks.

Break, break. As I was typeing W calls me! SHOCK! I had the game face, thank goodness she didn't call 5 minutes ago, and Rocked, you ROCK, I wouldn't have pulled it together without seeing your support. I had it on. She offered to grab the girls and bring them to me since she had to go by the house anyways. I said not thank, I'm leaving with the next 10 minutes, it'll be easier for me just to go home. I said I just got done dealing with situation XYZ which she asked about and I explained, so now that the crisis was handled I could leave. Besides there is no heat in the building, so no reason to stick around. She said she had to come back to get her stuff and then leave. I said I assume you will stick around for a while to get stuff in order and she said no, "I just want to get home to spend time with the girls and you and get them in bed and then I can deal with what I need to do for work"
I was strong, confident, upbeat, made sure to have a firm/loud tone in my voice.
