Moderately slow day.  At 2:30 I'm going to an in-house education presentation on "Wellness."  Baptist is very big on education and all employees are mandated to get a certain number of hours per year.  They make it easy by providing a lot of in-house presentations.  I helped with some of the research on this one, so I thought I would go.  I probably don't need the hours this year, but it will be interesting. 
 
Next week we have a counselor coming who is known nationwide for his work primarily on grief counseling, although he calls his special area the "loss of dreams."  He came last year to Montgomery before I was at Baptist and I came to a presentation out here at the Psych Clinic which he gave on the same topic.  What I like is that he incorporates music into his work.  I seem to think I've already written you about him coming, when I first found out. 
 
Sounds as if you are as busy as I am.  I feel a little frayed because last night I got a lot of new material in class (the final is Monday), but fortunately I found out the exam is short answer and not essay. 
That means I'll just have to grind into my mind what in law are known as the "elements," but I won't have to concern myself as well about "writing" fluidly and literately.  (Law school is big on writing).  Just about everything in law has elements.  For example, a prenuptial agreement must have X number of "elements" which it must meet under the law to be enforceable.

Good morning, I was real busy yesterday and didn't get a chance to write.  Today I am leaving to go downtown to the ATF around 9am so thought I would send a quick note.  Your Nada message ended with "I'm..." I assumed you got interrupted and couldn't finish it.  I plan to leave early from the ATF this afternoon and meet Julie and then go to her Father's place in Delaware for the weekend.  Julie is presenting on a panel on Therapist and Suicide downtown so I'll meet her and we will leave from there.
 
Have to go, till Monday.
 
Larry

Good Morning
