I just had an interesting conversation with my mother regarding our relationship. She called today wondering why we have not been talking much recently and I finally felt confident enough to ask for some time off, not just with her but with all of my family.

Well, it's REALLY long, but I would appreciate some input. I've replaced the names with a position in parenthesis, e.g. (wife). Thanks! By the way, does anyone know how to get rid of the mess about fonts and so fourth that appears only once the message is posted? ----------------------------...
