Silke - see? you are such a warm sub. I have no intention of hijacking your thread. My story is probably not much different from many; I have read the stories forever and for some reason, started looking around the forum and the academy. I thought what a better way to see if this is something I really like than to join the academy...road test a few actual tasks....

Was in the chat room lurking and met someone....it's only been a short time but very intense. We are taking things very slow but it's been very revealing and very rewarding.

Oops - started hijacking! Thanks for the ear. And so glad things are returning to "normal" for you and your Master.
