Thank you for your input. Yes, I do have a coaching session booked for this evening thank goodness. I can really tell when I have gone too long without one.
Yes, I do agree with my coach's advice not to discuss M issues with people. It has been tough because these people have been our closest friends for 20 years and, as H seems to be avoiding them at all cost, I am the only one around to face the questions. I will ask my coach tonight what I should say. I just know, once people get suspicious the rumor mill will start, and that is the last thing I want to happen.
You also hit the nail on the head about using the dog as a barrier. I have done that. You are right. I could make more out of my time at home in the evenings. I just have to get up and do something. Thank you for pointing that out.
Thank you for the time you always take to answer my posts
