[Dialogue] Diann McCabe Inducted into San Marcos Women's Hall of Fame

[Del Morril]

I'm very well, and certainly proud of you.  Not everyone gets recognition
for their work. I'm so glad you did.
I'm also delighted to hear of what colleagues have done with their lives
since I last saw them.  It's amazing the variations of service that come
through in our communications. We're lucky to live in an area where quite a
few of our old ICA colleagues reside, so we can get together now and then.
And I'm grateful, as well, for this dialogue that keeps us updated with one
another.  Justin and I still are working full-time in jobs we love, although
I have cut back on the number of clients I'm able to take in a day - get too
tired in the later part of the afternoon. So I spend the rest of the time
writing, or doing computer input, etc. I guess I'm at that time in my life
when I find myself questioning is "this" experience because I have something
wrong, or is it just part of "aging."  As far as I'm concerned, I'm still 35
in my mind; my body just doesn't like cooperating with that image!

Right.  It's funny, the person writing the article asked whether I had been
"paid" to work in Mississippi and Indonesia-and I decided not to go there
and simply use the phrase, "Peace Corps-like" work.  [The award apparently
is only for unpaid efforts.] Terry remarked that the Mississippi and
Indonesian reference amounted to only one sentence while the committee work
(zzz) seemed to hold more weight.  Such is the way of the world.  Not sure
how I would have articulated the ICA work differently-the whole write up
process (written by someone else) was uncomfortable to me.

Hope you are well--Diann

Many congrats to Diann.  What a wonderful honor.

However, I must admit that it always makes me curious as to how little is
said of the years with the ICA and its work in so many colleagues little
"bios" I've read in some article, etc. For some it seems like life began
AFTER leaving our work together.  I guess it just reveals how many years
have really passed in the life we once experienced as colleagues.  Stranger
yet is how we still manage to seem so close to one another, keeping up on
what's happening, our thoughts, philosophy, families, etc.
