Sounds good Barb! I was just typing that I'm quite OK with seeing her once per week, it's just that there is no "we'll see each other tomorrow" if that day gets messed up. We talk nightly and share fun stuff and concerns. She isn't a lady who bitches continually about her job, she's actually quite positive about life. I don't solve her problems and she doesn't seem to expect me to. We talk about my D's university decisions and how anxious I feel about this change, we talked about the anniversary of my Dad's death etc. We laugh but we also share some tuff stuff too. We contact each other equally. Sometimes I initiate and sometimes she does. It's nice. She wants a job where she can work five days a week and reasonable hours, that's encouraging. She was actually using me as a sounding board for her thoughts on finding new employment, not really bitching although she kind of felt she was. Also she makes me a priority, which I do appreciate. She has a whole life to stuff into a Sat morning and all day Sunday, yet she always finds time for me. I also continue with the things I do each week, my meditation group, my book group etc. and she encourages me to keep doing those things. Anyway, there's no perfect R and there are bumps here but we'll see where it goes. If it fails, I think I'm strong enough to take it in stride, feel my pain but move on. That's my ramble lol. Gotta go.
