weird how thinking that my email must have made you laugh (based on your response) made my day.
But, seriously, when you said "...all those doubts tumbled out..." The word tumbled just seemed way too soft to me. So I replied, "No, cotton balls and kittens tumble. This is Mount Vesuvius..."
I chuckled a little too. I pictured you laughing at my description. It's always a warm laugh. It somehow says "I'm sorry you're hurting".
