O, please! Yall-- proper spelling seems to have gone by the boards years ago w/the advent of text msgs, etc. It doesn't take something as drastic as stroke or blindness to be a bad speller lol. I can spell w/the best of 'em when I write formally. When I don't, though, I can get pretty creative, & that's the polite & edited version. But, Cindy, we're so glad 2 have u back! U had us really really scared there for a couple weeks. Don't make posting to us a chore by going thru each of them w/a fine-tooth comb. We can figure it out. We just want u well & happy. Don't stress yourself out about the small stuff. I'm sure every1 on this list would echo my sentiments about that. We're just so happy & grateful 2 have u back w/us. & that's both the short & long version of the truth.
