I have real trouble ending friendships, even when they're unhealthy. It's the whole "healer's instinct" thing... I want to help people, even when they're made it abundantly clear that they're just not helpable.
I'm actually doing better with the end of this friendship than I've done with others in the past. Maybe I'm growing up.
In other news, I have my third visit today to the PTSD trial people.... so far, my only side effects have been fatigue and difficulty sleeping. I wonder if the shin splints are related? Better mention them.
Elayna did great in karate yesterday! Sensei ran her through three-punch kata and tai ich, and taught her three-block kata and one other that I didn't catch the name of. Her balance and coordination have improved so much... she's not falling over on her turns anymore. :) Any day now for yellow belt... I hope she gets it before she goes down to Florida for the summer.
She *will* be doing karate this summer - her sensei has an associate who has a dojo, like, 10 minutes from my parents' house. So she can keep training. :)
Two to three weeks of not walking. Damn shin splints.
