A few weeks back I went with my kid to her therapist. My kid had questions for me, all of which I answered honestly. Things are much better between us, and we still see each other all the time. On occasion we do make a small joke about my being TG. She is still not ready to start spending the night here again and I am not going to push it.
I am getting a bit frustrated professionally. The museum is starting to become redundant. I have asked for new training, and I put in for a promotion, although I know who will get it (and she does deserve it). HOWEVER - I have been going in on Saturdays, which is a day off for me, to work the U-505, and have been having a great time down there. Then, on top of it all, I was put in the coal mine on Sunday. Again, I had a fantastic day. I love working the coal mine on a Sunday.
I am still looking for that elusive full time teaching spot. My current school, though, provides me with the opportunity to do some wonderful classes, so I am having fun this term. I also have proofreading to do for my book. I need to recognize that I am pretty lucky with what I have, and not to fret over what I don't have.
I am also telling more and more people about me. I am getting so close to just standing up in the morning meeting and making the announcement.
Anyhow, I am out of time! Off to work!
