I know that my T's mind isn't wandering (at least, it's more focused on what we're talking about than mine is!) because he can reword the things I'm saying, and connect them with things I've said either earlier in the session or in the past. He rewords it all and it makes more sense. I figure he's got to be paying attention to be able to restate stuff I say in a clearer manner.

Although his mind was obviously wandering the other day - instead of writing the date on the card (he always gives out a card with the next appointment day and time) he wrote my name and the time. No date. haha. And he'd left out the second apointment (he was giving the time and date for the pdoc apointment and the next one with him). We were talking while he filled it out - but I managed to input both dates into my phone and he managed to mess up the card. I got home at laughed when I saw the card a few days later.
