It is good to have this compassionate outlook Denver. Because to a certain degree it is true.

Some of that is also HER responsibility. If you err...it seems to be on the side of punishing yourself for too much of this.

Falling on your sword...

That is for YOU to process.

I probably do punish myself too much in all of this Gritter... lord knows I have punished myself a lot. But most of it IS true. I have a hard time finding what it is that she could have done better... other than to try something other than leaving me to fix things. But what that would have, or could have, been... I don't even know.
