      From mkbrn October 10

      Terribly sorry to hear about your brother. That must have been so hard. My job? Same old same old. Still feeling burned out. I'm trying to see the positive in it until I find something else. Maybe it's not as bad as it could be... There are some positives I'd be giving up if I left and I'm trying to think of that. I hadn't really thought about it much until a friend who was hell bent on leaving suddenly said no way when she found out some things she'd be giving up if she went to a new floor. I suppose I need to change my attitude.... Hope all is well.. Hugs, Mary
