Well things are still chugging along... so journaling.
Went to W's after grabbing S to walk the dog .. had to look everywhere for his leash .. doing so seen her tablet .. the 'list' of things she wanted to change about herself was right there. Yeah I peeked ...self 2x4 imposed for snooping ... all things I think she should work on ... controling, anger, .. was like the top 10 list of MLC issues ... #7 was "Uncertain about my marriage" ... at first that stung but I realized ... well yeah ofcourse she isn't sure, if she were we would be either D or back together. I also noticed the page before that ... was dated a few months ago .. a timeline of events between her and OM, this was interesting in a bit .. alot of she dumped him, he calls and apologizing, he dumps her .. she calls apologizing. Seems the timeline was done a few months ago .. almost looked like she was writing it all out and talking herself into ending the A as the timeline was full of ups n downs .. she keyed on the downs. I was actually kinda unphased, realizing that MLC brain was about as organized as spaghetti
She came by later, grabbed S, and I went off to my last RCIA class. I had a good PMA going .. have been for a few days now. I am trying to figure out what/how/where to be involved with at the parish ... either sponsor for RCIA, I would like to help in the family/marriage thing but figure I should get my side of the street clean first .. maybe something with kids .. I am not sure. They discussed they need more photographers ... W has dabbled in that for years, I shared this with her ... just like a DB invite, mentioned they are looking for help there, I thought of her .. did not volunteer her or anything like that but if she was interested she could call the office ... she actually brightened up and shared with me some meet-up group stuff she was wanting to do there.
I GAL'd and went out with a buddy after, talked a bit .. we have been friends almost 20 years .. we just were amazed how fast time goes, he was happy to hear about W and I trying, and planning on going to the weekend retreat .. he is one of 2 people that knows my sitch completely ... non judgmental .. thinks I may be a bit crazy but he already knew that ...lol
Tomorrow a friend of mine has her son coming into my office to 'shadow' me for a few hours for his "Career Day" ... looking forward to that ... and the 3 day weekend to come
