the weekend wasn't too bad, all things considered. i got to see my daughter and we had a great time together. having my days with my daughter be good ones helped build on the overall good feelings left in me from the friday before with B.
she was with me the whole weekend. it helped that i had a pretty good idea of what she'd be doing all weekend as she was preparing for her trip. it was a pleasant surprise that she called me from the office saturday night and again from a pay phone once she got to her destination on sunday. there's nothing quite like looking at your phone, seeing a number that you don't recognize but that you know is from the city she's in and then hearing her voice on the line. now -that- is a sweet, sweet surprise.
i think because she was home until sunday, at the same time i was away, made it easier to "break up" our time apart. she was home and i was traveling, then she traveled, then i went home, then she'll come home.
anyway, i've felt her presense in my heart this whole time. for xmas i gave her a bracelet she wanted (and about the only thing she's ever said she'd have asked me for if we were together). it's surprisingly calming to be able to visualize and know that something of me is with her all the time.
now just the holiday weekend and one extra day (she's off tuesday too) and we'll be back in touch. and the sun will rise in the east again.
