No, I am giving myself some social interaction during my workday. I would not see my d16 anyway with this new arrangement - except so far for possibly the Wednesday evening thing - during the week. We would skype or call either way the other days.
Alternative is to get a job here in Sweden. Half the pay, and I didn't like my last job here much.
Just to make it clear - I have little social connection here during the day - no one else in my little one person office - I take daily shopping walks to town to just see people and exchange a few words, have worked at the library sometimes just to be around others. I like being around people -
The girls are painting together now. W often sleeps in d16s' room, they share clothing, d16 confides in W.
What more can I do than ask d16 to do stuff with me? Not for my sake, but for our R!
