Very good introspection here on Pam's part. I like that she's working on getting things squared away in her mind. OF course there's that nibbling fear in the back that her feelings for Jim are how you described them. But I doubt she'll give much credence to them what with all this thinking about things. As always I'm on pins and needles waiting for one of your updates.

Merry Christmas to you too. Hope you have a good one.

Author's Response: Thank you! I enjoy writing their introspection, especially around key decisions, so this is my favorite point in the story to write. Merry Christmas! Mine has been great so far, hope yours is too.
