Guest guest Posted May 16, 2003 Report Share Posted May 16, 2003 Hi Bonnie again. I just e-mailed you and then received your reply. Congratulations on your little boy. That is so neat! Children are wonderful. Take care. Re: Welcome Bonnie and all > Welcome Bonnie and All, You will feel so much better with this group.

Guest guest Posted May 17, 2003 Report Share Posted May 17, 2003 Welcome to all the newcomers I have missed over the last several weeks. I couldn't get on the computer for a while and then tried to make up for lost time and read all the emails I missed! I finally realized that was a mistake and I was never going to get caught up. Today is the first day I believe I'll get what I have on my screen read.] Bonnie, don't worry about spelling in this site. You will find as you go along most of us can translate any mixup and if we can't we'll ask. Unfortunately, loss of fine motor skills in your hands is a possibility for you and when it happens you will take a while to compensate for it. For a while I gave up trying to correct the misspellings and just ignored them, but you will find a work around for that too. Remember we're all in the same frying pan and don't mind hearing whining ore questions. Regards, Sue Ellen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
