I know that to you this has seemed like a thousand years, but to a WAW it is a very short time since the bomb was dropped. This is going to take much more patience. You have to evaluate to see if it is worth the effort.....and if it is, then work your tail off aNd you won't be sorry.
It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
