stitchwhichALso, do you remember when I angsted all over about failing one of my protégées and we ended up breaking the relationship? https://stitchwhich.dreamwidth.org/477763.html?nc=3#comments Well, things morphed into something (almost) nasty. When I see her, she is all sweetness and "I've missed you so much!" but on social media and behind my back at events there have been quite a few barbs and darts thrown my way (which she will post about to ensure that I know about it.) Sort of the kind of comments women often make when they are working out their resentment against their mothers after they leave home. I don't take much hurt from them, mostly note that the comments are bitter and judgy and do not reflect well on her and also (happy wonders!) are no longer generating fall-out that would be my problem to address. There is fall-out, of course, but it isn't anything negative against me. And the errors she has been making are (yay!) not my problem either. Like, maybe, picking up the King's champion's gauntlet and slapping him with it when he issued the standard challenge after coronation ceremony... (sigh)
She's moving. She and her husband are relocating to Wisconsin. The Kingdom of Northshield, in the SCA. I don't even feel guilty about being relieved. And it should be a good for her, to escape where she's made so many missteps and be in a SCA kingdom that has no prior knowledge of her. She's been steadily changing and growing these last few years and I hope the positive changes continue.
But she will cease to be "my problem" soon and that Feels. So. Good.
