Thanks Payton and Jo. Thanks for the encouragement.
Jo, I'm glad I could make you laugh. I'll definitely make another attempt at a different meeting. Also because I took a shower and can still smell smoke. Wow, did that mess up my sinuses. No worries. I'm sober now. Actually surprising considering that my wife is gone until Sunday and I am completely alone. I think what is keeping me straight is that I have a 14 year old blind/deaf Beagle that is keeping me busy. I try to sit down and she starts barking again.
