But when you ask these questions: <BR/><BR/><I>Yet, once I update and start looking, a new job will come. Will that new job have the flexibility I want?

I commend you there.<BR/><BR/>I have been so very much enjoying your snapshots of life series this month, by the way. Thank you for those gifts.

We'll have to plan our March date soon...as soon as I feel better!Mama Llamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04392701844744910258noreply@blogger.com
