I'm in my last week as a school nurse, before moving on Monday to research. this is bittersweet, and leaving is hard. I'm leaving friends behind--altho I definitely plan to stay in touch.
xH is gone on business for a week out of town. D14 is missing him, and missing the gf. I'm thinking this is a good thing, really; she's not pining away, just mentions it (and the cats she also misses) from time to time.
Texas prof may not be visiting after all Memorial Day week. His college daughter has a program that he may need to provide transportation to, altho that may all fall thru. nope, I don't think it's an excuse; he's not happy about it. Before I knew about the potential change in plans, I asked him--in preparation for the visit, if he is "involved" with anyone. Long, thoughtful reply that he thought I'd freak out over--dating a few, not "involved," doesn't want involvement or emotional intensity right now, or until his bipolar son is back home (could be a few years). He was very gracious and grateful about my support and encouragement. Going hiking with one of them this weekend, altho she's seriously bipolar (and doing all-day outpt psych therapy daily); doesn't want to get involved with her for that reason, but I pointed out that she is pretty fragile and vulnerable and could easily misinterpret his kindness. hmmm. also told him I was beginning to feel like his sister....
