Thanks everyone. I texted this morning: I see you called. How are you today? W: Average. How are you? About the same. (Then my tale of woe: dead battery!!) W: my mom is praying for you. And for me. NYGAl: I like that W: me too.
Note: this is the second time she said her mom is praying for each of us. ( not for US but I'll still take it!)
Personally I think this is an awesome interaction. Not too close, not too far away. Very good.
