Heartbreaking news

I hadn't heard from my therapist from CFC for a while so I got worried and called... They said that she was still on maternity leave, which I found was odd, so I sent an e-mail to one of the clinical directors.  She sent me an e-mail today saying that her son had passed away a couple of weeks ago from SIDS... Oh my gosh... Such devestating news.  I of course immediately felt deep sorrow, and I felt completely helpless as I had no way to get in touch with her.  Luckily I had therapy today, (and pretty soon after I got the message,) so I was able to get some of my emotions out in a healthy way.  If I had not had therapy I'm not sure that I could have been able to refrain from restricting or self harm.  I had so many feelings all boiling over, and I felt like I was going to explode.  Even tonight I am struggling, especially because I have absolutely no way to help her and I care so much... It's really a terrible feeling. :-(

Since my last post things had been going a little bit better, (well until today.) I am still cycling in and out of depression, but there has been some bright moments.  Thankfully I was offered a job from a team in Scottsdale, and I have been talking to another local team as well.  There is still one other possibility here in AZ, but I have no idea if that will pan out at all... It may be a fat chance, but nonetheless I'm keeping the option open still.  Otherwise I applied for some Administrative type positions, and hoping I might be able to find something workable in the near future.  If I can find something there, I think it would help me to determine if I want to have synchro be my main focus with a part time job on the side, or if I want to have a full time job with synchro on the side.  Both scenarios have their advantages and disadvantages, so hopefully things might become a little more clear sometime in the near future!

Oh I have been making some jewelry... I don't really know what I'm doing, but I have made some things that I like and will wear.  Maybe at some point I can think about selling some.  If I don't sell them I will definitely use them for gifts and to keep myself in fun updated jewelry! :-)
