What the psychic saw V

Read of my previous visits to Kimberley here, here, here, and here.

I took Ron down to Cinci to see the psychic.  Ron is one of the funniest, sweetest guys I know and I was hoping that she could give him some ideas on a direction for his life. His recap of his reading is here.

Kimberley first said that I usually only come if there is any sort of big thing going on, but she didn’t sense anything was going on now. Which is incredibly interesting ( and that will show when I post my next book review).  She’s right – for the most part, I’m happy, as I said so before. It’s really just the job thing at this point, which was my main question for this visit.  She wanted to talk about something else as well, but she agreed to answer my questions about the job search first.

When I saw her on June 11, we discussed the job search.  She felt then that the job would be found within a4 month timeframe.  Of course, today is October 7 and she mentioned that the window was closing. She suggested a temp agency, pronto.  I agree and have a couple in mind that I’m going to start exploring today and tomorrow.

But then went to the issue she wanted to discuss:  friendships.  Rather, the end of some.  These have been on my mind as well lately – in fact, I’ve been tempted to post about this lately, as a way to work through it, but I have hesitated.  Since she brought it up, it must be something I need to work through in writing, so I’m going to do so.

Four and a half years ago, when my father passed away, I was blessed by the amount of folks who showed up for his viewing, as well as those who showed up later on that week.  But there were three friends who came to the funeral; three friends with whom I thought I would be friends forever.  But that didn’t happen (does anyone else feel like Mary Alice from Desperate Housewives is narrating this part?  No?  Okay.)

• Wifey:  Our friendship fell apart here.  My finest hour?  No.  Wifey was a different person when we first became friends.  Change happens, and not all friendships are meant to last forever.  In truth, I can’t stand her husband.  He brought out the worst in her.  Kimberley agreed that this friendship was over.
• Jujujen:  We have been friends for many years.  But twice, recently, she criticized my feeling about Barry.  Now you guys know,  I don’t care if you like Barry – I respect your feelings.  All I ask in return is that you respect mine. I didn’t say anything to Jujujen those times, but planned on addressing it with her in person.  We were supposed to see each other for dinner.  I never heard from her – and I never called.  Kimberley said that their seemed to be other issues in the wings.  There were.  To be honest, I have always felt left out of some of the most important moments in her life – for as close as we supposedly were, I wasn’t invited to her housewarming, to her adopted son’s shower, to his birthday parties…it really hurt, but I kept it to myself, because I know that not everyone thinks the way I do.  There are other things as well, but I’m going to keep it short.  Kimberley thinks that this friendship is over as well.
• Jora:  This is a tough one. Jora and I have often led parallel lives.  Her father died, mine died. Her husband’s son died the same week my nephew committed suicide. We have learned a lot from each other.  We have had great times, but also incredibly hard times.   I will write more about this relationship soon, but Kimberley does not feel as though this relationship is over yet.

We talked a bit about my health.  She sees mostly good things. 

Other than that, nothing earth-shattering.  All is pretty much well in Lawgirl-world.
