            Laurenfra,
            Thank you so much!!!! That makes the whole journey worth it!!! You know we all live for compliments!!! Again, thanks!

            Bren,
            How do I feel? Well, I'll just say that it felt great to have to buy new swimtrunks before I could put the seadoo in today, and the fact that last years lifejacket was wayyyyy too large was even better! And, to be honest, I feel a whole lot better healthwise since I started this on New Years.... but then, I've lost a pretty large sized dog from around my waist since then. I exercise regularly, eat better than since I was a kid... and actually look forward to getting on the scales these days. I can't say that I've been excited about that ever in the last 20+ years!!!
