Thanks! We're haing alot of fun - Kelly's really good for me in this regard b/c I tend to regard home improvements as too overwhelming-s he loves them so she's really got me moving in the right direction.

I don't think that general statement is accurate...I think it's an individual issue and not a work status issue.
