awh....thanks you guys. It will be exactly one year next Saturday. It's been a great year and hopefully many more to come. This forum has made a huge difference and I thank all of you. Pia, we were just thinking about that post the other day when we had to put a light blanket on the bed and I had to put on a terry cloth long sleeve top and pants in the morning because it was so chilly (72 degrees with a pretty good breeze) but still no fuzzy slippers.
Deb and Jay

we do get a lot. We get 4 weeks vacation, 2 weeks off (paid) at Christmas, 14 holidays and 3 weeks sick. I used every last hour of vacation between visitors coming here and our trip back to WV. Besides all that, it's a great place to work.
Thanks everyone for all the well wishes!!
