Bright,

You seem to be doing extremely well! I'm so happy for you. Also glad you made decisions based on what YOU want, knowing you're coming from a core way of DBing. I think it's important to be who you are, even if that means for a short time, you go off the DB bandwagon temporarily. You have to basics, and the tools. Now you seem to have the intuition to read your own sitch.

Good for you, Bright!
