Just caught this - I don't know what to add, really, so just this: sorry to hear this, and I wish you the best of luck and hopefully you'll return soon to this place - I always enjoyed your humorous comments a lot!

Yes. And one shouldn't feel guilty about forging ahead. There is a degree of excitement about new freedoms, a new life, selfish pursuits, etc. It's all out there waiting for you! Life is good. Embrace the change when you can.

Just got home from seeing the folks, rejoined the 21st Century ... to come upon this thread first as I wade through the threads I've missed. Very sorry to hear of this, Mark, but like others, I think you'll discover you are better off in the long run.

So I'll leave you with this thought:

Aren't moose like cats - they always land on their feet?

I think the subspecies Jazzmoose will prove that its true.
