Jerry, I'm so sorry I haven't written back to you. I've been struggling heavily with feeling depressed and haven't wanted to bring that feeling to the board. I read everynight but haven't posted to often. You've been to good a friend for me to cause you worry, I'm fine, just struggling with being back at square one again.

Love,
Minnie
