Just got home from my appointment with T. It was strange..not in a bad way. We discussed my work and my boys as always Work has been hell the last couple of weeks and I completely lost it it and threw a clipboard and started crying...

Then we discussed that my daughter is still waiting to hear from her favorite college and has been very stressed until she found out today that UNH has offered her a huge financial aid package. This lead to a discussion on family beliefs on education. Both T and I are the only ones in our family to attend college. Both of us also had siblings that thought we felt were better than them and knew everything. I asked a couple of questions and found out quite a bit. She has two older siblings. The 3 of them all have the same dad but when T was a baby her mom kicked out...mom remarried and she has a younger brother. Mom wasn't a nice person and she wouldn't give details about things she had done but just said they do not have contact..nor does she have contact with her older siblings...only with the youngest...Mom and older sister live in Florida which surprised me T is 64 her mom is 87. Mom never cared about education it was her dad that encouraged education.

Definitely a strange session where I found out a lot about her...she just didn't blurt out information I asked her a couple of questions. But I needed a relaxed session with everything going on at work and home...not what I planned but so glad she didn't didn't ask me lots of questions.....plus it helps me understand where she comes from when it comes to parenting since my mom was my only involved parent and she died when my oldest was 4
