I’m back working as a counsellor tomorrow, after my Christmas Break. Today I sort of prepared myself by meeting Chic Eleanor for lunch. She’s very psychologically minded, so a couple of hours with her often feels like I’ve completed a good bout of supervision . ( for those that don’t know Chic Eleanor is also a trained counsellor)
We talked about where we felt we were both going this new year and ever the optimist she rested a gentle hand on mine and said
“We are going to have such adventures, you and I !”
Chic Eleanor's comment immediately put me in mind of the Dr Seuss book, "Oh the places you'll go."
ReplyDeleteCan we come along on your adventures, please? xx
Chic Eleanor is the best acquaintance anyone could wish for. A soothing influence.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with all of it, and enjoy! Jxx

ReplyDeleteChic Eleanor sounds like the perfect friend.
ReplyDeleteA gradual reintroduction to everyday routine - perfect.
ReplyDeleteSounds like you're off to a running start!
ReplyDeleteI need to think like Chic Eleanor and try to anticipate the good that might happen in the future. Otherwise, life is too depressing.

How do I get an appointment with Chic Eleanor?
ReplyDeleteI loved that counselor (Fiona Shaw) in Fleabag:
ReplyDelete“ "You already know what you're going to do”
I used to think like Chic Eleanor and my middle name is also Eleanor. Now I have nothing special to look forward to but in the past Wow! gigi
ReplyDeleteFrom Eleanor’s mouth to god’s ears! Would you like to fuck a priest?
ReplyDelete"Iwannafuckapriest." That show was pretty darn good.
ReplyDeleteYou know we are ALL in love with Chic Eleanor.
Oh yeah, the Hot Priest! I loved "Fleabag."
ReplyDeleteIt's so great to hear from an optimistic person. It's rare these days!
You could not ask for a better friend than Chic Eleanor.
ReplyDeleteI love that for you both. I also want to be a fly on the wall for your adventures
ReplyDeleteThe best is yet to come.
ReplyDeleteAnticipation (even if you don't know the details) is vital - keeps things ticking along.
