Hi, Georgia,

You're not walking in my shoes on this.  I got another tinkering one 
today.  He just can't let me get on with my well-thought-of ministry, 
and/ or at least honour my responsibility with a discussion that isn't 
on email.  The best way to have ENFP me down tools and walk is to 
interfere endlessly, tweak tweak tweak and thanks for being so 
cooperative.  Cooperative, in that I have complied and  haven't 
responded at all, lest  I be honest.  It's not bucking authority, it's him.

Marion, a pilgrim, who is trudging through the swamp of life and whose 
sail is trailing in the water.
