Wow, Painter! That sounds like an incredible shift. There's nothing like a major self-improvement project to get you into a better place. And going back to college!? That's awesome.

You sound like you are progressing by leaps and bounds lately. I kind of feel like I am, too, but mainly it's because I have been over scheduled like crazy lately and have just realize that WH isn't having much impact on me these days. No contact whatsoever for over 2 months, a bit of recent internet intel, but even that was really a ho-hum sort of thing.

Keep on keeping on, ladybird! We're getting there, I think.
