Jan,
My mother had one of the most profound sayings. If you're not making mistakes, you're not doing anything, and that's the biggest mistake of all. Also, she always felt that the fellow who invented the pencil with the eraser on top was a pretty smart cookie! Lord, I just made a real whopper last week -- I was able to "hide" my mistake -- so I was just blessed, or lucky! Please don't be discouraged. We are human and if we were all perfect, we couldn't stand each other!
