Thank you so much for your kind words. I feel like a bit of a fraud. I could not leave my rings off, I just could not do it. It affected my mood too much. I guess that means I am just not ready so I listened to that feeling.
You have nothing for which to apologize. I missed you but certainly understand your reasons.
I am so glad to know that I have made you feel you are not alone. You have offered me that same kindness. And you are not alone. I am here and will probably be here for quite some time. (Actually, my hope is to be a DB success story but then stick around to talk with people.) I know we have not met, but I feel that we form real friendships here.
My H once told me that the friends I made in law school will be friends for life because we were "in the trenches together" as it were. I think that applies to these boards, too. If ever we were in the trenches, it is most certainly now. The people here helping and fighting beside us really affect me. I would not be in the shape I am in right now without the people here. This includes you!
