Why aren't there razors that are shin-friendly! I've normally been very careful. But last night, I don't know what I was thinking (or wasn't thinking!) I lost skin on both shins!! I haven't lost skin in years!!! Serves me right for not wearing glasses while shaving, I guess.

And hurrah! The purchase of my place has gone through! Now I just need to get the phone call about picking up my keys.

Last night, Mr. Nick and I saw our counselor. I think we finally had some sort of breakthrough. I was thinking that we'd had a lot of sessions already with not a whole lot of progress. But then again, we'd not been very diligent about practising what we learned in counseling. Anyway, she gave us a tongue lashing. The bottom line is that we can no longer keep assuming the other person is a mind reader. And I need to provide Mr. Nick with unconditional support.

What I do know from my seminar that providing unconditional support is not always easy, at least I've had some practice now.

I usually leave those counseling sessions feeling really down. Last night was no exception. 

There was something else I was going to write, but I don't remember what now...

Oh! Yes! The J Man invited me to a good-bye gathering he's organizing. Luckily I can't make it; otherwise, I'd be thinking about whether I wanted to or not. He's off to Sweden for several months to work and travel. I haven't talked to him or seen him since we broke up a couple/few years ago except for that one time we saw each other while I was at a bus stop and then we Facebook messaged each other with some brief catchup small talk. Yet I feel like it's some last chance to say bye or see him or something. Maybe I wouldn't even be thinking about this if I hadn't seen a photo of him yesterday and then started thinking about a certain part of his anatomy...BWAHAHA
