7/10/07 My 2nd day off...Last night was fun. I met my daughter in the city and we had dinner in this festive little place with live music and delicious food. It was really nice to do something special for a change. Today I am seeing a friend but I would rather stay home and rest. I don't see her much and we used to be together all of the time. I like it but she doesn't. It makes me feel wierd about our friendship, like she is so insecure if we don't make this quota or something.....It's tiring and brings the whole experience down for me....it becomes an obligation instead of a pleasure....She can't take the truth or I would talk to her. She will only take it personally and feel rejected and I do not want that. I am taking more and more time for myself but short of ending the friendship, there doesn't seem to be a great solution. The other thing that I do is try to couple an errand that needs to be done with seeing her....at least I feel less resentful that way!
