I have been out of town on vacation, and not really able to interact on the forums at this time (poor connectivity, I don't do well typing on my phone :blush: , etc.). The mod team is on duty and I'm keeping up with them from time to time, so all's well in that regard.I will be back in the office on Monday and look forward to talking to you soon.Edited: Because I am really, really bad at texting on an iPhone.If I had your job I think I'd be even more inclined than I already am to deliberately pick somewhere with poor phone/internet connectivity to visit, so I could say "Sorry you won't be able to reach me and I won't be able to do any work while I'm away, but it looks like I'll have absolutely no signal!"Thanks for taking the time to let us know you're ok though. :) Link to post Share on other sites

Good Luck to you Gaile on all your future endeavors. :'( Link to post Share on other sites

I'm hoping for the first and not the second. Link to post Share on other sites
