I said the main reason I was concerned was how when we saw ex-MC on a holiday once, he made a comment that he wished he was sitting in his backyard grilling, but he decided to be responsible and come to work. Which bothered me. T made a face and said, "Why would he say that?" Me: "I don't know. It made me feel like he didn't want to be there with us." T: "I'd feel the same way. Clearly he didn't think before he said that." He added that I wasn't a burden.
I mentioned the e-mail I'd sent last night and how I'd hoped it hadn't bothered him. T: "I usually get an e-mail like that every 10-14 days from a client or a client's parent (he sees teens). And maybe once a month with something like what you did, saying, 'make sure we talk about this next session.' It's pretty common. It didn't bother me at all."
