Thanks, Daisy. You can't imagine the impact your words have had on me this morning. You are, of course, right on so many levels but something about seeing it in print has more impact. You're just right about all of it. And, just like my behavior on our trip was an aberration, her behavior right now is.

I'll try to hold on to that. You know, given the childhoods many of us on this Board had, we always think we can do something to change the outcome in situations like this. It allows us a little more control. I am working on that piece with T.

I even called her on continuing to not manage her looming retirement during our sessions, which we had agreed to do in early November and hasn't been mentioned since unless I bring it up and then she basically takes a pass because it's not a good time for me. I told her, in tears the other morning, that she wasn't going to delay her retirement because I'm depressed and we can't wait to get started on this. She agreed and, I think, had come to the same conclusion herself while away last week.

It's a two session week for me. I'll keep you posted.

Thanks again for, once again, sharing your wisdom. It helps more than I can say.
