It's a good feeling.  You have the mindset, Roxann.
After things return to normal, I'll be interested in hearing all that 
you have learned from this...what you need, what you want, where you can 
improve, etc.

"Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will
not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent. Genius
will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the
world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone
are omnipotent. The slogan 'press on' has solved and always will solve
the problems of the human race"

~ Calvin Coolidge
