wow - thank you ALL for the kind words, comments and emails... it really meant a lot to me... am at the office right now (it's good that i am swamped here at work) - drove up this morning and was a bit upset... then around 10:30 i had to run into the ladies' room because i was sick to my stomach... beri didn't eat breakfast this morning - she, instead, ran around the house and seemed to be looking for archie... nearly killed me. anyway - it's gonna be a rough stretch - i really was cheered up by your comments though... and i thank you :)
