W picked up S last night, another cold brief visit, I was cleaning and cooking ... walked them out and went back in .. watching a movie and playing chess on my phone. W TM 'test' on my phone, I replied ... then she tome me her phone has been acting up, she was tired and going to bed.
She has been looking pretty rough lately, stress no doubt hitting her. To top it off she shared her new boss has someone coming in to 'learn her job' and the rumor is 3 of them (her included) are going to be let go. I just STFU and listened as she opened up about how this will impact her. Could not help but think how much she has lost during this crisis ... not that her job is a result of it, but its another thing not going her way while dealing with all the fallout.
So knowing all ^^^ this has nothing to do with me, I have remained detached, content and just going about my buisness W TM this morning (I was at work early and out back so I did not respond)
W:I'm not purposely being distant. I love waking up since 3a.m. lookinf for work. We are all tense right now. I just hope I dont go off on his (I assume new boss) a$$.
She TM some more about her new boss ... but I did find it interesting she would reach out and try to let me know she was not being distant because of anything I was doing. Again I did not reply, she then called... as I answered she said in a cheerful voice "So you ARE alive" ... I explained I was at work, she asked why so early and I told her, then she talked about her issues .. work, new boss ... I listened, did not give her advice nor try to fix .. just heard her out, ended the call and wished her a good day.
Its rather peaceful being detached a bit, not riding that emotional rollercoaster with her every move or non-move. Its also going to be interesting if she does lose her job. I do not see her being able to afford the Beach condo ... nor will I give up my place and move into that one ... aka the OM-W love nest. She may have some serious decisions to make and the timing is not right as far as us moving back in with each other. Hard to believe we have lived separate for almost 2 years now.
So everyday with MLC is like Forest Gump's box of chocolates .. not sure what I am gonna get
