Re: Jaccqui/Thank you
Jacqui, Hugs. It¡¯s never OK to lose those we love. And it sounds like things went as well as they ever do. Grief will come when it needs to. Really big hugs! One of the things I treasure about this

Re: Got the call
Not your monkeys. There is something seriously wrong there if they can¡¯t find a decent chief. You¡¯ve been there done that. Fixed it. They messed it up. Let them deal with it. Good going on the

Re: Got the call
There¡¯s a pretty limited candidate pool. A pretty broad skill set needed, and an aging group of experienced possibilities. The newest potential director is young, but she just had a baby. Ann

Re: Jaccqui/Thank you
Oh dear. Jenny, I'm sorry to hear about your mother. I hope she recovers soon. It is tough when older people want to be independent and make their own decisions. In this case, it seems to have hurt
