Thanks so much, Sylrayj! That means a great deal. You know, my folks and my husband's mother have each invited us also. When we thought about it though, we realized we would be further behind the 8 ball with no access to high speed internet, the mail situation and not being here to get things rolling with LURC approval and contractor issues for the start of the new place. So, as difficult as it is, and as much as we might each be willing to give a kidney for a hot bath right now, we feel the right thing is to just tough it out. However, that doesn't mean we have to like it. I'm sure there are lessons to be learned with this challenge, and continue to at least try to remain open minded enough to receive and recognize them. On a selfish note? I'm not giving up my stainless steel kitchen appliances without a heck of a fight. Thanks again for the good wishes.
