Today might have been my most focused and efficient day at work this year – unfortunately it contained a lot of issues with a major and very important client. Hopefully I will be able to solve this next week.
This afternoon W texted “Hi. I just wanted to hear how the rest of the girls first week at school/kindergarten went. Have a nice weekend.”
Instead of just texting back as I have done for the last year or so, I called her and we had a very good talk about the Ds first week and some of our observations in general. W shared some issues she has with MIL about MIL saying things to the Ds that W doesn’t like. We talked about D5s need to be with W and D7s wish to be more at my place. W asked about the karate and said that if D7 is to be more at my place maybe we should wait to cancel the karate since the shifting days might change soon. We talked about missing alone-time with the children and a little about not having the time to focus on D7s math….just all kind of small issues. The talk was pleasant, nice, without interruptions – just two adult communicating in a pleasant way. Felt good – talk lasted half an hour.
We didn’t agree to anything but to continue the talk next Thursday. I told W that I have taken the day of so I have the time necessary.
My children are here for the weekend – yipeee Next week I have a session at shrink, the meet up with W, session at personal trainer about my training goals for the year to come, bikeride with a good friend, planned a session at the local tri-club and hopefully I can work more on my work-focus. Some week!
I feel good these days! I feel good!
