Trust my rage
meara, that's exactly where I started. They are a great resource and I'm hoping they get back to me pronto. I'm stressed out because I think this case is totally winnable but I've never done one before and the latest case law changes all the time.
And because this poor woman broke down crying on the phone with me this morning. It just makes me so angry that we welcome DV victims with detention and not open arms.

All my sympathy with regards to your mother, Consuela. I've been there, and yet I really, really haven't (mom was at least lucid up to the end and was able to stay in the managed care facility through it).

Thanks, Frank. We've started letting the family know.
Me, I went for a long run in the woods this morning, where I saw more rabbits than people, and also saw a great blue heron and a flock of goats. And now I have a big batch of chocolate meringues in the oven.
I re-scheduled my interview for tomorrow, because I don't want these people to think I'm too much of a flake. But I hope they take their time on decision-making: the other firms I've been talking to have been very deliberate (i.e. slow).
Good luck, Stephanie! I'm glad we have lawyers like you around.

Did you hear JZ's story about the great blue heron?

successful lunch. I got a giant raspberry protein smoothie (no extra sugar) and get my car inspected. It was a full month late. WHEW! no more fear to be driving around.
I've also managed to get a pile of papers taken care of today. I'll tell you what I am not sure how I can keep this up until 5, especially since the production yard has shut down for the day.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Why is it only Thursday AND I haven't been able to finish either of the two things that were 90% done LAST Friday, and are definitely due tomorrow? (The answer is Other People.) Annoying!
