Two Days after the Day After

It is Thursday evening. Bob got home yesterday afternoon, and I went to see the counselor for my first visit last night. It is an interesting thing, being trained as a counselor, being a veteran counselee, and going to start a new counseling relationship. There are expectations of what that experience should be, and then there is the reality of the experience. Well, I am not sure that this is the long term forever counselor that will be with me through my crisis of a life. She was okay - but I would have handled me differently. Perhaps I should enlist a good friend, or even a perfect stranger for that matter, who I can give a scripted manuscript to - and they could play the role, as I would write it...........now there is a way to save $$$ and direct the whole thing exactly the way I think it should go............

Can you tell that I am feeling somewhat less fragile and am a little further away from the emotional edge?

I need to be held to this resolution - I WILL connect - in PERSON with at least one old friend - this month - ooops - not August - but September.........................
