Thanks Kathy.. I am feeling much better now..
I do need to keep me well for my family..
I think that is the message this thread has given me..
I am detached a lot.. in my life..
I just read a post written by a male adoptee speaking about his birthmom and how she is detached.. (not his exact words) and I kept thinking whew that is me..

I have been reading (listening to) a book that may interest you.. or a series of books written by Phil Rickman. The book is about a woman vicar.. and its about ghosts etc.. I am only half way through but I keep thinking of you as I am listening..

Book called.. Wine of Angels..

In this novel, Rickman has moved away from the group of characters and locations that have dominated his previous novels. 'The Wine of Angels' is set in the Herefordshire village of Ledwardine, where the new vicar is all too new for the residents. The staunch and staid patrons of Ledwardine are not happy about the appointment of Merrily Watkins, a woman, to a position that has up until now belonged to a stodgy old man. It's a change they're not pleased about, but Merrily goes forth with the best of intentions. It's not until she actually sees the vicarage that she has questions, especially about the third floor which already seems to be occupied -- but only to her eyes.
