W texted Saturday from the NY airport asking if she could borrow $250 and pay me back next week. I tried to call and she didn't pick up. I texted "I'd love to help but have some questions first. Call when you can."

She tried to call but I was busy doing something really fun for work and missed it. She texted

"Okay. Tried to call you but missed you. I'll make it work, nevermind about the loan. About to board my flight back".

Later that night she texted "Hey Jon. Just thought I'd let you know I'm back in Tejas"

I responded "Great! Thanks for letting me know".

Without trying to be controlling, my questions for her would definitely have been whether she's still going through with the D and what the next steps are. Asking to borrow money in that situation is insane. So it's either she's reconsidering a bit, or just not thinking straight.

My weekend was fantastic, and so full of great times with friends and some work thrown in. This exchange might have really brought me down before. It hurts to not be able to help her. It feels good that I easily could have. Good stuff this week as well in all of my jobs. TGIF!
