Oh no, I'm so sorry. I'm very impressed with your positive attitude. I hope everything turns out well for you.

I know I'm not the only one around here who likes Marcus Aurelius quotes, here's a new one I heard recently.  It goes something like this "Sometimes the thing that is in the way is actually the way itself".  Very permaculture.

Celtic/fantasy/folk/shanty singing at Renaissance faires, fantasy festivals, and other events in OR and WA, USA.

This is one of my favourite threads! I suppose the soution is always a mind change - looking at the half full glass rather than the half empty one.
