I havent discussed the possibility of phone sessions yet... maybe that will come up tomorrow. It's something I'd thought of too, but I dont know how she'd feel about it. You all are right, it wouldnt be as good, but it'd definitely be better than nothing. I was thinking of asking her if she'll at least let me call occasionally, even for 5 minutes, just to tell her how I am... just to know she's still there.
Unfortunately, she doesnt work on Fridays. She saw me once on a Friday recently when it was just really necessary, but she was the one to offer it. I dont think I'd want to ask her to come in unless she offered, you know? Driving back early the next morning isnt as much of a concern though as just how brain dead I'd be by the time I got there.. I dont mind driving 2 hours at all, but 2 hours after teaching all day, I might be babbling nonsense by the time I got there! You all are right though, that would be better than nothing. At least then I'll know she isnt forgetting about me. That's my biggest fear.
I've also been thinking (since I posted that) about maybe trying to talk to my current T on the phone here and there, but not for an entire session, and seeing my old T on the side while I'm out of town. I'm not sure how either would feel about that though so I'd have to talk to them.
And thank you for all the compliments about my children being lucky to have me. I teach in the 4-year old room, and I absolutely love working with them. It's hard to feel quite so terrible all the time when theyre so happy and loving and just want to make you happy. It's the 4th year I've taught at this school, but for some reason I'm going through this "what if I dont know how to do it? what if I cant keep control? what if it all falls apart?" panic right now. I never have felt this way about it starting before. Thank you all for the compliments.
