Okay, so I believe that Melissa was going to jump in and share some of her feelings about the cancellation of the ceiling.

Yes, just like Ejon, I remember vividly where I was.

I mean, and Karen and this wasn't that long ago.

Mom and her current husband have only been married three and a half years.

So I mean, this probably happened about four years ago.

Anyways, like Jeff and Dad had said during the divorce, when it was all still pretty fresh, I also was pretty angry and bitter with mom.

And our relationship was strained for a long time.

You know, decent. It was still decent. It was friendly, but I definitely felt like a trust had been broken.

And it took a long time to repair that.

And as a result, Dad and I did get closer, but also kind of like Glenn mentioned, I haven't felt quite as close with Dad since he's been remarried.

And, you know, independent of that, I have become closer with mom.

I think just time heals and perspective heals.

And anyways, to mom and I, you know, do have a good close relationship.

And unfortunately, on a few occasions, I think it's been a little too close.

I remember I was driving home and I can picture the spot in the neighborhood and these beautiful trees.

I live in the Midwest, not in Arizona anymore. It's beautiful.

But anyway, so I remember specifically where I was.

And I got this phone call and just this excited voice on the other end.

Oh, you'll never guess what came in the mail today.

I just got the letter of the temple ceiling cancellation.
