[/QUOTE] i am glad this is encouraging to you somehow.... [/QUOTE]

It is--you are--encouraging to me because in the short time I've been here I've seen you get knocked down (sometimes out, like now) by stuff, even to the point where you want to just quit, just "curl up & die"--but what I see is you retreating, recovering, reviewing, & gleaning at least one new bit of useable data from the latest disaster. That's what's called perseverance, & I guess I admire it a whole lot. I keep trying to make it a habit.

I'm sorry, ~waves~, for thinking you were doing better than you are. Thanks for being willing to tell me again. I'm so sorry you're still having to deal with that headache; sleeping in cigarette smoke would be awful.

I'm so glad you got your access level fixed. Too bad about the pest but those skylight closure panels sound nifty. I'm glad your thoughts aren't only on the horrors at work. Hope the sleep & meds tackle some of the bad stuff for you so the load seems less overwhelming.
