Thank you for being honest with me today. I understand, of course. I think that maybe going all the way to 12/31 wasn't necessary anyway... of course that's just "think" though, I haven't really let myself feel it yet. Only 2 more sessions for me to find enough closure to all of this, if we decide not to reconvene in January to finish. Can we do it, L? Are you up to it? Am I? When I told you those things today that I'd realized over the past couple of weeks, it felt really right. I don't think I want to break for 2 weeks and be bumming about the upcoming ending over Christmas, and then come back in January to end while I'm working a ton of overtime at work. That would be even harder than having only 2 more sessions. We are still the same kick-*** therapy team that we've always been though, you know. If anybody can do it in 2 more sessions, you and I can. I have a lot of faith in us.

I'm going to miss that "us", probably a lot for awhile. But omg I'm excited too, to move forward into whatever this next stage of my psychological growth is going to bring!!

p.s. I just looked at the pics I took on my phone of today's sand tray. I just realized what was missing that I pretty much always use but didn't today. Did you catch that when you took it apart? I looked at it when I was picking stuff to use, but it didn't call to me today. I understand why, even. Because it represents that which I am working on letting go of.

p.p.s. What did you mean when you said that you might need more? That was kinda confusing.
