Hubbyone left for work as usual this morning, and came home extra early, fired. Right after lunch, we went out together --- he applied for unemployment again, and we put in for food stamps again, too.
Got a new book that's gleaning some deeeeeep insight regarding childhood trauma issues, and appropriate treatment. "Just Before Dawn," by Jan Hindman. Been discussing it lots, ongoing, with Hubbyone. Wish I could discuss it with lots of others. Significant insights and perspective.
Been trying to 'bond' via phone my neice whose father died last month --- he was living with her when he died --- I feel she is most 'in jeopardy' and have a resolve to be a -'better-late-than-never' 'parent/mother figure to her. She really got a shit deal, regarding childhood...
Had an intense phone call with her a couple days ago, but significant.
Had a lunch date with a guy last week --- had a last-minute cancellation, and no contact since then. Been calling, etc., but no follow-up.
Why am I the only 'stability' I can ever cling to? Well, there's prayer... Oh, and the sacred library card. Love books.
