It has been a rollercoaster of a month which is why I’ve been missing.<\/p>\n

This month marked 25 years since my wedding day and my husband wanted to get together for coffee to mark the day. It was a very emotional night as he monopolised the conversation with what he wants to happen over the next year culminating in him on his knees in McDonalds asking me to marry him again next anniversary. Ummm, no. Not going to discuss reconciliation before you have completely resolved your mental health issues. Not sure how many other ways I can say this.<\/p>\n

Now, he’s decided that his psychologist says it’s time for us to have marriage counselling. Ummm, no. Not until you completely resolve your mental health issues. I’m not sure what he is telling his psychologist but I have told him that if she wants to include me in his treatment she<\/em> has to contact me. I don’t think she can given the current privacy laws but that’s my condition.<\/p>\n

I have aslo just started my counselling course with a three day intensive seminar. It was absolutely fascinating. Interesting lecturers, great food, amazing fellow students. I love being part of a course where it is just natural to start and end with prayer every day and where everyone is encouraged to help and support everyone else. Our next face to face thing is a study group meeting in about a week and a session with our learing partner. Then another study group three weeks later and another intensive four weeks after that. For the rest of the term we work through our study guides and do the assignments. The hardest thing I’ve found so far is the electronic submission system but that is new this year so the tutors are getting used to it as well and we’re all new together which makes it a little less intimidating. Admittedly I’m not usually intimidated by technology but I did nearly submit an incomplete assignment which would have been bad. To be honest the workload is not too overwhelming and I had already submitted most of the first two weeks work by the end of the first week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
