I'm in. MidnightBlue, it's so exciting to have a new washing machine. Congratulations! Sounds like you've got a lot of positive stuff going on in your life now.
Good intro, Sao. Change is hard. I hate change. I also hated being in pain so I had to weigh which pain was worse. As I go along, the change can be uncomfortable at times but nothing in comparison with my last days of drinking.
I'll be around. I've got stuff planned this weekend, and have a three day weekend because I have a meeting at my son's school tomorrow.
