I've NEVER.....

....had colleagues so happy and spirited to have a colleague back with them.  People come up to me and wrapped their wide open welcoming arms around me in delight that I was back with the group.  My boss, I hadn't see her for nearly 4 weeks.  She'd been out two weeks prior to my being out nearly 2 weeks.  She looks good and in full force.  What a remarkable woman.
