Perfect!!!! You accepted the assignment as it was given, and I think you're going to come out of here fine.

I'm not saying to do this permanently, Mer. Give it a few weeks and then we can reevaluate how things are going. Deal? I'm only saying this for your sanity's sake. This doesn't have to continue ad nauseum, indefinitely. Just long enough to take the edge off of your emotions. THEN you make another decision.

But as always, if you have an idea, I defer to you. Because I know you know what's best for you, the kids and your marriage.

Being in a helicopter does not make me infallible... just want to set that record straight!
