Many lines made me smile, esp the dogs/cats....and the recognition of how hard it is to 'forget' what one just put heart/soul/make-up/a long drive into...... it's a big ask of ourselves. And yet it seems to be "the" big ask in these circumstances.

Yes, definitely the hardest and there are so many creative practices that require this of us. Thank you Diane!

I enjoyed your post so much, Linda. I smiled as I remembered Ma Bell’s jingle from some time ago: “The next best thing to being there, Is a long distance call.” Technology has certainly changed (consider all the Baby Bells) and calls, such as your awaited call, are vital to the workings of your life! Thanks for the inside scoop, Linda. Don’t break a leg!
