Thank you, Timothy. I like to just write as well and worry about trying to put it together later or just do a few tweaks and make it better. Thanks for the visit. Sara

Tom, So far so good. It could be better if I was a lot younger, but, alas, that is not possible. Thanks for the nice review of my work. Sara
