Connecting

Today was a day of connecting.  At work, we came off lock down, so I was able to meet with many patients who had been waiting to have a session regarding their situation.  The physician assistant and I saw several patients.  Most importantly, we saw one who had been in a fight, and needed a referral to the infirmary for his injuries (why that was not "automatic" I do not know.  But it got done.)

My niece has travelled to China to teach English. She is with a friend. Since she has left the country, I had not heard from her.  No emails, no Facebook, no Goodreads.  Her father had not heard much, but her mother told me she had received a few brief emails. My niece sent one out tonight, so I am relieved.

Today is the birthday of my former supervisor and administrator, who is now retired. I called, and we had a nice phone visit. We talked about going to a movie together. That sounds like fun.

I am a solitary person. I like being able to be in my house and live my life according to my plan. (And the plan of the cats.) But, I am concerned about my family and friends. However, I do not reach out well, nor do I connect well. But sometimes, I just have to do it.
