Addy you sound a lot happier these days! I think giving up that job was really good for you.
We had to go to a recognition dinner last night at our Historical Society...their annual big fund raiser..we were some of the guests of a dear friend who'd "bought" a table again this year. The problem was that he's back in the hospital, not well enough to attend so we went in to visit w/him on our way to the dinner. The resilience of the human spirit is so present in this man....his determination to resume a normal life (something all of us doubting Thomases question) that it's humbling to be with him.
I'm not going to cann one dang thing today...
