Mornin, Mike and Thank You for the PM. Hope you don't mind if I reveal a bit of it. When your opening line said...'My Dad was my Hero' it told me everything I needed to know. Bless your family.

Thank you guys. I am fine. I was a mess at the hospital, but we (our whole family) have a sense of humor that gets us through these hard times. We are all strong and support each other.

No problem at all Mick. He was my Hero and without his guidance, I wood not be able to do the things that I do today. I told him that at the hospital, but with the exception of drywall. Julia taught me that! Hahahaha.

Julia says that I am pretty much untrainable! Maybe she is using the wrong tool to try and train me???
