Sorry dear tetra, I just read your post....I cannot seem to find enough time today....
I am so glad your parents have you on their insurance and that they are so supportive. They sound wonderful.
And yeah, that appt is a long way off, strange but also good maybe? I hope so love.
And your friend sounds lovely.
My cousin did a very similar job to yours for 30 odd years, actually, she retired last year and then went back (to the same job, ward clerk in a major hospital...she runs the floor...) part-time. It may not be the same, but I have an idea re how full-on your job is.
Lovely to see you.
