Hey, that sounds more like it. She seems to be taking more of an interest now that you've laid off a bit. Make sure that you are really friendly and happy when you talk to her. Just keep doing what you are doing. Hopefully she'll start working you back into her life rather than you trying to force her into yours.
In the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years. Abraham Lincoln
It is hard to fail, but it is worse never to have tried to succeed. Theodore Roosevelt
