Most of what I have learned is from a friend (also basically a newbie) or I've picked up a bunch from this forum. By the way, I'm not really computer savvy either. Recently retired so I can do these things.

Cindyjean, this is a great site, even after 27 years of quilting, I learn something new everyday. I sent my personal info to you in a Private message.

So! Is there an adoption agency around that we get permits from or somethin'? <wave>
if nothing else, ask the question ... I will receive an email in my box ... I will either answer the question, explore the opportunity, or teach you how to navigate this forum ... lots of good things going on around here.
and, I am typing to anyone who reads my typing <g> ... since I don't have time to read 16 pages :shock: the best I can do is say:
okay, kiddies ... what do ya want to know? LOL <wave>
