There have been times when my T was gone on extended leaves where I would start an Email, and just add to it daily/as I wished, mostly things I would have talked to her about if she were here and we were in a session. I haven't done it lately, but once she realized I did that she always wanted me to Email it to her when I was done. I think she got to the point she was expecting a long Email/journal of sorts when she gets back. I don't really do that anymore.
