I am so glad this worked out for you.
I can underdstand what your saying. I live in real small gossipy town and I have friends that I have known for many years, some our kids go to school together and others I teach their kids. If I admit my problem to many of these women, I wll have to endure the whispering at the next school functinor PTA meeting. Some will be talking of how terrible it is, others (the ones I've drank with) how it won't last and still other will shun me ot the point where Our children will not play.
Ther are a few I will once I have enough time under my belt i will tell and others don't ever need to know.
