Thanks for your advice smartcookie, I'm so happy that you have taken an interest in my sitch... I've read a lot of your posts on other peoples threads and really value your viewpoint.

That is something I have to pay attention to and really try to internalize. I know I'm sending out vibes of a wounded child and not that of a strong man - I honestly don't feel like a strong man at all, but I have to at least try to. Act as-if, right?
Sometimes I come here and read some threads and feel optimistic about my sitch because I realize I'm not the only one fighting this battle, and other times I come on here and find out that another person I have been following has given up or been served with D papers and it just crushes me.
I have so much empathy for all of you LBS's and wish I could offer some words of encouragement or guidance on your threads, but I can't even seem to get my own self in order. Thanks to everyone who so kindly help those of us who are fighting so hard, yet are consistently getting beaten down.
