Ah, I'm feeling mellow and full and lovely.  Just made scones (from a box mix), whole wheat tortillas, ww waffles, red onion sauce for hot dogs, and packed my lunch for tomorrow.  Still only about an hour of kitchen time, and it flew by because I like cooking.

I won't be quite as lonely as I thought because I've been chatting with a guy online for a while, and we tend to spend over an hour talking each night.  We chat instead of phoning because he's deaf.  I haven't met him in person, but we're getting along well so far.  I've only told my friends D and S about this, so it's in the very early stages.

The one thing I'm worried about with my arrangement with H is if she'll still like me and maybe even respect me.  She knows a lot about me-- is pretty intuitive-- and I don't want her to think I suck just because I can't get things together.  Kinda difficult when you're working with someone who seems perfect (I know she's not, and she's talked about her own struggles before, but they seem fairly few comparatively).

Must make sure I'm ready for tomorrow.  I do look forward to tutoring in the afternoon especially, and church!  And a bit of hiking.

  1. Glad to hear you are feeling mellow and that you have things to look forward to.

    Showing you can do well in the week H is gone is a great way to keep her respect. You're doing a good job so far. Keep it up!

  2. Cooking, hiking and chatting online with a guy friend. Sounds like you're doing a good job trying not to focus on H being gone. I know you miss her and it's still difficult, but keeping busy and distracted will help the time go by.

    1. Thanks. I keep thinking... once the weekend is over, she'll be back soon!
