Today I texted H about some mail that came in and we talked about his motorcycle qualifications/courses etc. Then later in the day he texted me "passed!!" I was like ??? and he said my test I just took it. So we talked about him going to an event this weekend and he said and this time I really will be looking at the bikes for sale. I told him I was happy for him and I am. His GF is bank rolling a lot of this. And I don't really pass judgement on this. I can hope that it all turns out okay but his choices are his choices.
He's coming by on Monday to see my mum and S (his SS for those just joining the programme already in progress) I think he's pretty brave coming by to see my mum. LOL! She can be pretty feisty. But she loves him and he knows it. She and I have had a few conversations about the D. I realised that a lot of responses to my mum when I first told her had to do with disappointing her and feeling like a failure. And now almost a year later when I talked to her I was able to say how I was really feeling and explain my growth and it felt good.
Having my mum here visiting is really teaching me a lot about empathy and patience. I can't believe how dependent she is. She's gotten (physcially) quite old in the past few years and her visit is eye opening...how much I have to literally look after her.
