And me too!!! Lots of uplifting news this week....Jude I can't get out to my mailbox due to this snowstorm that has turned into an icy nightmare but you are in my thoughts and prayers... Kim you're doing awesome, keep us informed and sounds like Patti made it thru her first day back with flying colors. There will always be obstacles for us to face but in the end they make us stronger! Trudy
