Well it has been over a month since I posted. oops. I really mean to get here more often, but for some reason I have been avoiding it. Writing here makes me feel better so I am not sure why it has ben so hard.
I took the day off today, as my vacation time is maxed out and I lose it. I got up early and walked with Daisy. The weather has been too ht for me to walk any other time, and the evenings don’t cool down enough until after 8 and thats a bit late as there is dinner etc to deal with and I am winding down about then.
Work has been awful. I had to lay off B, and that was just beyond stressful. For her, but also for me. I guess thats what happens when you are BFF’s with someone who works for you.
I still have not had any contact with C. I am considering sending another e-mail. Just to tell her I am thinking about her and ask how she is.
It sounds as if things are not easy for you now. But things surely will get better with time. At least the weather will cool as summer ends. Keep writing. It helps
Hi Annie. Long time no talk. I’m sorry to read about your difficulties with C. Kids are tough at that age. Some seem to take longer than others to decide we’re worth knowing. A friend of mine has two sons who are giving her the silent treatment. Her therapist says give them until they’re 30. They will come around, eventually. It’s so difficult, tho. Heart breaking, really.
Economy seems to be improving here. Glacially. But I have hope. Negotiating for a great job now…it is HARD out there. Thank goodness for our fur babies. WIthout mine, I’m not sure I’d keep my sanity. I’m convinced of it.
