Thank you! I plan on listening - as much as I'll hate not driving and not
hanging out on the computer, I don't want to mess things up - I've waited too
long for this to take a chance on doing something to mess it up!

That is a great offer! and I'd love to take you up on it. It may be a little
while though. I am going nuts here this week and am having surgery on monday,
so I will be out of commision for a while afterwards. I'm not sure how long.
Guess it depends on how things go. I understand I may not be allowed on the
computer for a few weeks afterwards. We'll see about that though!! Maybe just
not for long time periods! CrisS
