What deep thoughts you made me have, concolor1. And they make a lot of sense. Paul, thanks - as always - for your caring support.
So - I've taken one additional step and arranged childcare in advance for my grandson on Wednesday. I know he'd be a big distraction for me and everyone else at that meeting. I'll have him at a daycare for 4 1/2 hours to allow me a little extra time for myself. Wishing it was Wednesday already.
Oh yeah - couldn't take the alcohol back - had opened every single thing I bought, except the near beer, which was no longer a full six pack. Ah, the lessons I'm learning!!
