True dat! After the season I just had, a flat tire or fouled sparkplug would've been enough for me to get the message! Dang sure didn't need the grief I'm going through now!

But there it is. God's got something in mind (for both of us, I dare say) and He doesn't do e-mail! I have to work (ooh, I hate that word!) to suss out His purpose for me.

And if pain is truly "the touchstone of growth", we're both in for a growth spurt, ain't we?

Glad some things are turning good for you, Jazz. I know you're eager to get back to AZ. I hope the move, and what you find there, are everything you hope for. Blessings on ya!
