Wii, glad to hear your putting yourself out there, vulnerable once again, ready to be smacked by a 2x 4 upside the head, or on the other hand, fall back again into tender embraces. Either way, your alive, and considering the alternative ... always a good thing to be on this side of the dirt.
I'm back after a week on the road (last of the year - I've locked myself out of work travel !) and added some R & R while I was at it. Had a bit of luck at a blind auction while doing the business part - I think folks were too afraid with the economy as it is, to bid on a very high end item. As a result Ms $3M will have a very nice rock to wear after Christmas (8 cents on the $1 retail value). Lesson - don't be afraid to take chances.
The last lesson of the week was that there is indeed sincere prayer, but not necessarily in a church.
