I texted "ok."

She texted "Please forgive me, I'm so sorry." Then "So you decided to stay" and "I hope your ok."

I felt like ignoring her or texting "Had I evacuated, you would already know because I would have cancelled our appointment." I kind of wish I had. But I texted "I am fine" instead.

I do think she is sorry, but I am still angry. I might have reacted in a different way except I don't know when my next appointment will be. Doesn't seem like escalating things by pitching a fit over text will do anything but stoke my anger and leave me to stew in it for an indeterminate amount of time due to the hurricane.

Still, I'm mad.
She can be sorry but you're allowed to feel angry.
