Welcome back. It's good that you were at your dad's, because it's so frustrating to us addicts to be unable to use the computer. Our cable connection was out for two days. Fortunately, my husband was able to re-connect the dial-up so we could at least check our mail once a day--and had the computer available to validate, thank goodness. I'm addicted to that, too--smile.
