Glad to hear that you plan to join, daylia. Sometimes it is more fun/safer to share personal messages. Though, my life has been an open book, here at the Mudcat, for ages, it seems.:-)

I am proud of the way my son has come into adulthood, too. He just turned 32 this year (oh gawdess, I am NOT that old!:-) and is just ending a 12 year relationship and I am very proud of the way they are both handling it; much more mature and reasonable than I ever was in such cicrumstances, of course I was younger, too.

Welcome to the Mudcat!
