No, he has seen it for sure! Whenever I have met him I have looked the best I can, been self confident, talked lots about work - something he can relate to and measures worth my. So different to a year ago where I cried on him in a cafe! Hearing things through friends isn't a bad thing but he has to see it. Even if he is asking through your kids, if you are GALing it will get back to him, might even spike his interest.
Hey Cas Sounds like you are on the mend! And the stockings would come in handy. I am in jeans and long sleeves today - in August!!!!!!! Grrrr! Hope it goes well with the surgeon tomorrow.
