Pamela, I KNOW I replied to your post and thanked you for your kind words, but for some reason, I noticed that nothing was below your post. I hope I sent something privately, because if not, it means that when I posted, I forgot to do the final submission of the post. Anyhow, thank you for your kind wishes. I am CERTAIN that you WILL get there yourself! Irene
