Do you have to pay for visits that are essentially interviews? Probably. Damn, what a waste of money that must feel like.

Probably. I've never actually done that. I've mostly eliminated people from the list based on location or inability to return a phone call. The therapist I was just dealing with was only on the phone, so no co-pays, at least that I know of.

Just checking in! I finished my move and am recovering at my friend's house. When did I become such an old woman that two days of darkness, air conditioning, and flexeril are necessary after exertion?
I am reading along in Bitches, however, and you're all in my heart. x0x0x0x0

This. I hope you are able to find a therapist that is both convenient and helpful. I'm so sorry you have so much to deal with right now.
Did you say you were going to the beach this weekend? I hope you are able to find peace, and some relief from the physical trauma.

Yes, my annual big birthday weekend at Mom's condo at the beach starts sometime tomorrow afternoon. It will include a nice restaurant dinner with TCG link, a lobster dinner at Mom's, an ice cream cake made by Mom from ice cream bought at the awesome homemade ice cream shop that is only open in the summer, and hopefully some snuggle time with my toddler niece. In case I fail to mention sometimes how incredibly lucky I am.

That sounds perfect, sj. May your loved ones spoil you as you deserve.
Hi Trudy! Good to hear the move is behind you. What a mess. Of course I have no concrete plans yet, but I will be headed in a NY direction before too long. I am unfortunately delayed by a big 70th b'day party for my MIL. I love her and she deserves to be surrounded by family and friends, but her birthday is July 14th and I really thought I would be up north by then. And it isn't like I could leave a couple days before, so after it is.

Oh, sj, i can't see how you think you are possibly being whiny. All good thoughts to you, my dear.
Trudy! Glad you are all moved! What a PITA -- ugh. I hates it.

Yay, Trudy! Moving is hard. I hope you were able to do nothing but relax tonight.
Strix, mostly because I am sick of myself at this point, so I assume everyone else is sick of me too.

Strix, good luck with your move! I know this must have been a difficult decision for you.

{{{{Strix}}}} I'm sorry the move is so upsetting. I moved a lot when I was married to DH#1. A lot. First we moved to Philly which I was excited to do after living in a small city all my life. Then a year later when it was time to move again I was very upset, resentful to put it mildly, as I loved Philly. Then I learned to love Norfolk and made a ton of great friends. And a couple years later it was time to move again and I was not at all pleased. Etc. Etc. too many times
This is so not about me! I hope that you learn to love PA. It is a very pretty area and in striking distance to NYC and Philly too. I have an old friend that lives in Allentown and hope to visit with him on my way back south this year. New adventures! New chapters!
Please rest your head on my virtual shoulder and let me pet you gently and assure you that you will be okay. I more than understand the tears and offer a big plaid man hanky like my dad used to keep in his pocket.
