Candy, you can do anything in a supportive work place. Not only is my boss younger than I, but I have 2 colleagues with whom I work closely whose parents are about my age! Yikes. I hate to sound all philisophical on you but I think this time if it is meant to be it will happen and if not there are other adventures awaiting. By the way, anyone notice that they used to feel young and inexperienced and overnight we became the old ones? What's with that?
