      Dale,              DB>Yeah but the mailing list was not really setup for that. Its a one time sur       DB>that folks can just download and do what they want with it.               I have been so busy with being caregiver for my elderly Mom during the       day (a visiting nurse does actual physical care), then with ham radio       traffic nets at night, that some days, the only things I do with the BBS       is update the ham radio and weather data, and read messages...if I'm       lucky. Everything else has to wait.               I do all of her driving, shopping, banking, phone calls, scheduling,       appointment keeping, computer work, etc. She doesn't go out for doctors       appointments, grocery shopping, etc. UNLESS I am doing the driving,       helping her in and out of the car, and to a place to sit, while I do the       rest.               When I shop while she's at home, I don't have to worry about her       snagging the candy or donuts...although I wasn't paying attention this       last time, and darn it, she snagged the donuts that were "calling her       name". |
