Thanks Direction.
I've already edited my post about 4 times to add people I left out by mistake. I think most people here do know who their friends are, I would hope so.

My apologies again to anyone I've left out but meant to include. I do not like exclusionary "games" and maybe I am "guilty" of that here. I'm not as wonderful as some, never claimed to be.

Adding poetrylover and mybestkids, I'm sure there will be more. And I do welcome new friends/aquaintances/"xcontacts" and even former friends or probably more correctly aquaintances who went away, in some cases. There's too much rejection and pain in this world.
