Ha! Thank you for that truly kind comment! Joseph! It was nerve wrecking at first trying to decide how to format it but once I had a system it became fun as I love words. Have worked on it for several months and then watched a video by Brendon Burchard about distraction and push myself all day until midnight to get it done! Now I have a headache!! Lol! A labor of love! And yes I wil update here when ever I add something. Great idea! Thank you my friend! :) pj
