It is wise of you to ask her point blank via a paper trail.
Thank you for the feedback, I have made it very clear I don't want her job. I am happy where I am at. She is much better than me at diplomacy and conflict resolution, and I am much better working in the trenches, I like it. I don't want to be management and have to play the games associated with that position, I'm much better where I am at.
As Doggonecarl mentioned, 120+ days is more than I could have ever dreamed, but it's really not all that much and to be honest I am more focused on recovering and staying sober than any upward mobility right now.
