Yes, thanks... I have read the articles on this site for days.
There is an abundance of 'helps' here, thanks to all who contribute.

I am addicted to this computer.....but I don't think I could swallow it...lol

Naw... when my thirst for knowledge is lightened, I will slack off.

Gotta go to work........bye... thanks

Glad to hear that your son is in rehab. I'm hope you're sleeping alittle better now, knowing that he is safe? I have 22 year old daughter in rehab, she is an alcoholic. I am getting a lot of support from alanon meetings in my community, and this board. My prayers with you, your family, and Isaac. Take good care of yourself - K
