Keridwyn --<P>Thanks for the message. I've always felt that my strength was my biggest weakness. (As evidenced by our friends, they are stumbling over themselves to help my H because they know he'll fail, yet me they leave alone until I go to them). No one ever thinks I need help, because of how well I keep things contained. It's nice to hear once in awhile that it IS a plus!<P>
