Alcira, yes, it's just me who keeps the recording. It's in my pen, though, and he could listen to it if he wanted...once I did leave it with him overnight. Also, I can download it to my computer and that is helpful in case I haven't recharged the pen or something. Also, I can use the recordings to help me write short essays to him about the topic and how it applies to me. That's actually creates a shorter, coherent essay that takes the place of blast after blast during the week--and that's a good thing, too...for both of us (his times, my anxiety waiting for a reply....)
