The support from the owner and manager of the the company I contract with. A woman called in to schedule an intake. The receptionist asked a little bit about what she wanted to work on so she could better match her with a therapist. After listening, the receptionist suggested me. Turned out it was my sister calling. Fortunately, she told the receptionist that she is my sister but we've been estranged for several years. The receptionist (Jovia) came to talk to me about it. I was sort of horrified to think of my sister encroaching on my sanctuary! At first I said it would be ok if she was scheduled on a day I didn't work. But, as the day went on, I realized how upsetting even the possible of running onto her would be and requested that she be told there is a conflict of interest and provide her with other options outside of Aspect. They agreed withnthat and had actually decided to do it before I even asked. I felt protected. There is no way she stumbled on to Aspect. She would have researched the website and seen my pic and bio there. She is very manipulative and she was up to something. Glad Aspect nipped it in the bud. I can't get caught up in her web again.

Started my eye drops today in prep for my surgery Thursday.

Feeling overwhelmed with everything. Working extra hours, acclimating Tony, surgery, follow-up the next day, starting Tony in training classes, taking him for his initial vet appointment, seeing Lew falling. I'm used to working 3 and being off 4. Every day but Sunday is full for the next couple of weeks.

Tony is doing good except for the cats!!!Hoping the vet and the classes will help.

AC!
