granite: You made me cry--to see a thread with my name on it. Happy tears, I mean--that a real person cares, not a T. thank you more than I can say in words!!!!

I got home last night and my appointment is at 4 p.m. today. I'm still coughing and congested but not too bad so I'll go. I slept 7 hours straight in my own bed--nothing like home though I miss the kids already.

I fantasized a mural of angry red crayon all around the room. I feel the anger inside of me and hope I can do something with it in the session. I could spend the time "catching my T up" on all that's gone on, which is plenty, but I don't think that will be productive. As usual, I have to play it by ear and see how I feel when I get there. Apparently it's not my T's own office, or else she shares it, so that will be strange.

Thanks, rainbow_rose, too.
