OK, it happened. I'm in love again.

God, it feels good.

He called this morning, apologized for not calling me back on Tuesday as he had said he would. He had wanted to rearrange his schedule, and he could now fit me in on usual day and time. I grabbed that slot!

And he also said he put together a meeting for later today with my other team members, and they would get some of the logistical stuff sorted out that has been troublesome. (I've mentioned here before that my T will be filling a dual professional role for me, and the second role is now beginning with his involvement in this meeting.) I shared some stuff that has been going on lately, hard stuff, that is stressing me out. I know he could hear it in my voice, and I felt his empathy, and a sense of him wanting to protect me. (Did I imagine that?) He commended me for standing strong on what I want and not giving in. And also I shared some stuff pertaining to the meeting. He was glad to know all this in advance. Now he goes to bat.

When he talks to me on the phone, it doesn't even sound like his voice. It's weird. But his voice was so strong and firm and decisive, it really buoyed me. I felt his strength pass to me over the airwaves. I've been having a hard time lately, and I really needed that.

Have I said I love my T?
