Thanks to all of you for your responses!

I just don't want to do things that come across as passive aggressive in any way, mainly because I want to make sure that I'M not being passive aggressive; its not who I want to be. Any suggestions on deleting someone from FB? Don't they get a notice that I've done that?

Thanks for the recommendation to delete her from my phone. I am gonna look into volunteer opportunities today and I'm trying to contact a guy who told me he'd trade a few hours of labor for free horseback riding lessons.

I'm in graduate school for Acupuncture and have little to no resources, so GAL is requiring some ingenuity d/t financial constraints! smirk

Good luck to all of you! I'm trying to get up to date on everyone else's stories to offer support, but... wow there is tons on this site! smile
