Me: driving..text in a few 8:07am Me:Busy start @ work...like the idea. I'll have to get back to you in a bit. Sorry. W:No worries. I'm busy, too... Vote, yet? You know it makes me nervous to go vote!! 10:31am Me: no vote yet. I have very little to no influence w/kids. Anything you think I could do to make things happen? W: Just tell them we are going to get together for lunch/ dinner.. Me: Busy again... 10:54 Me: Do u mean tell them they have to go? W: I guess not. Would just like to meet for lunch... With them. 11:15am Me: How can I help, other than bullying them? 11:32am W: Don't bully them. Me: That's what I'm saying. I won't. Done that for a lot of their lives. Working on building relationships with them. W: I need to work on fixing relationships and need to know that they will try because I am going to. 11:46am Me: I believe they will. They are good people. 12:04pm W: I know that they are😄
restraining myself from coaching her on fixing relationships. And from asking to repair ours as well, and from pursuing more conversation.
