Re: New Plan, New Chapter for progression

Sheila,

From the moment I first joined this forum, YOU have been my hero. I'm so sorry that you have more (as Brenda would say it), Crap on a Crapstick!! I agree with Elaine - go for 90 as a long term goal!

I do have a wonderful and delightful cousin that lives in the Chicago area by herself. Let me know if you are interested at all in staying in Chicago part of the time instead of commuting.

Love YOU!!

Alice
