No harm at all and your right about the books. Just have ben reeling for weeks now about the direction I want to go. I see in these threads how beneficial the books are though.
It is absolutely hard looking back and saying what could I have done differently knowing what I knew. Thats what why I'm so pissed with myself.
Looking back, I see how the script was written. It was like I was manipulated to play the roll in this sitch.
Thanks so much for the supportive words and advise!!!
