Good luck with it Granite. I'm also off to try to work on my assignments and other things I'm so far behind with.

Nightlight,

My T is like that too, but she has made many mistakes. Been seeing her for over 5 years. We have come through a lot.

Have you had your final appt for sure or can you continue?

It was supposed to be the final last week but we're trying to continue. I hope we survive all the mistakes, I know I've made some too.

Hope and hugs to you. It is at least worth the effort. You need to be heard.

Thanks for this!

Hi Lola - Thanks for the thumb wrestling opportunity I got sucked into a work meeting. Just incredibly frustrated with someone IRL who is full of BS and very good at manipulating situations and people.

Granite - your cards are beautiful! I really like the bird in the heart one. I wish I knew how to layer everything so it looks so wonderful. You have a great talent

CL - hope your session went well
Wiki - hope your nap was wonderful

Apt and MKAC - I'll second the bookstore statements.

Nightlight

Hi CE, Healed, MUE, murray, karebear, jersey,shlump and RTS.

Wiki - it's probably 10 degrees here and we are getting snow tonight. Shoveling is not going to be fun in the morning. Decided it was too cold to walk.

OMG.....

I mentioned to T that I had applied for a job at a particularly large company a few weeks ago for a position that I felt was perfect for me. But then found out that the job was removed from their site on the day of that job fair....but I went to the job fair anyway.

Well, T apparently knows someone at the company and reached out to him today for me. T just sent me an email saying that the guy already received my resume from HR - that he liked it - and that he will be contacting me to bring me in for an interview in the next few days. Apparently, though, there is some internal competition for this position, so T said I might not want to get my hopes up - but the guy said that if this doesn't work out, he will push HR to find something for me.

I could really use some good luck vibes.....

My T is certainly a keeper.

We joked around quite a bit today in session....and I told him that he was lucky that I don't take offense to certain things as I'm sure some others would....He agreed wholeheartedly. I love that we 'get' each other.

Ugh - my cat jumped on the couch and she is stinky. I hate giving her a bath even if it is the rinse-less foam stuff. She hates it too. But she is NOT getting into my bed smelling like this.

MUE-when you talk about your T-it gives me hope that good stedy ones exist. Reading so many sad stories on here about T's doing a 360 and people left to figure it out and some even being abandoned-it seems like your T is steady. That's a good thing.
Thanks for this!

Sorry folks, I'm angry about something.
Probably unresolved anger at Bad Facilitator.
Perhaps triggered by my T not going to be there next week.

Fingers crossed that I can turn my story around again. Then I can have a great story for anyone else who also unfortunately struggles in the most enormous way with their T relationship. I'll know that things can get reallyreallyreally bad, and then they can get better again...

Surely?

My T and I have had our rough patches....and he has said some really awful things to me. But luckily, we worked through them. He is human, and he is a good fit for me.

Just for a happier story, in the past my T has also contacted a friend because she thought it could help me to get a job. I was always amazed at having a T who was so willing to do those sorts of really practical things to help. It felt like there was a certain amount of trust involved in something like that too.

Last session my T looked different to me. Normally she is drop dead gorgeous and looks like an "older" version of Angelina Jolie. And this time even though she had all her make up on as usual and her hair done as usual and her hip clothes on-she looked older and less attractive this week. Not sure why that matters. But. Weird, isn't it?

So excuse the fact that it's "current" music, some people may not like it... But I wanted to share an inspiring song for everyone.

Hmm. Maybe she was stressed about something or starting to feel under the weather.

...Or, maybe she's aging faster than Angelina Jolie....

((( healed )))

Sila - I wish I could hear the song. I can't access videos or music on this dang computer. I will try to hop on my daughter's computer tomorrow to listen to it.
