At this point I feel like I have come a long way but feel a little burned out. I have many supporters but still feel a bit worn out. I have spent more time so far than it took to get my MBA and I still ahve a long way to go. Thanks for your encouragement. It is always nice to hear that someone made it. Cindy,
