How are you dealing with that on top of everything else sunny?

ECHOES, thanks for asking--really appreciate your concern. Actually, the fact that T canceled seems the least of my problems right now, so I'm OK with that. I could have used his support very much today, but hopefully we can reschedule later this week. Tonight has been just awful on the home front. I am trying to do my best to hold things together and manage the family dynamics, but I don't think I'm doing very well. And it just makes me feel very, very bad. Like a horrible weight in the pit of my stomach. I think the highest priority with T when I see him next is to deal with these pressing problems. Things at home have gotten so bad that I know there is no way I can keep it to myself next session, so I feel over the hump of not feeling I can share this stuff with T. I need his help. I'll see if I have trouble sharing when I see him next, and if it turns out I do, I'll know there is a need to revisit the stuff about "us" that we've gone over before.

ECHOES, I checked at my library and they have When Things Fall Apart on tape, but not CD (my car only has a CD player). Darn. I would like to hear Chodron read her own book. I went to the website you gave, and the book listed on the front page is Teresa of Avila: The Book of My Life. Teresa is my patron saint. In my 20s, I visited her hometown Avila in Spain. Just a little connection... Thanks for the link.
