Bless your heart Barb. I don't feel an apology is necessary - you seem to have more on your plate than anyone I know! It is better you unload than keep it boiling inside! Watch out Louie then, huh?
Just know that I am thinking of you and yours and will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

"Let us rise up and be thankful, for if we didn't learn a lot today, at least we learned a little, and if we didn't learn a little, at least we didn't get sick, and if we got sick, at least we didn't die; so, let us all be thankful." -- Buddha

Jaco, a parrot in Salzburg, could not only speak but seemed to understand grammar. Whenever his person left, Jaco would say "God be with you." But when several people were departing, Jaco would change it to "God be with all of you."
Don't give it another thought........We all vent. Look at my post about the sign on my forehead. Just when I think I make headway BAM! I Love ya Barb. Love Oma
May I be more compassionate and loving than yeterday*and be able to spot the idiots in advance
Your writing is so artistic, and real, that you shouldn't feel obligated to worry about the "tone" of the words you choose to use. Words are the only means we have, to convey our thoughts and our feelings on this board, (well, except for smilies, and other pix), and you are a master at choosing the right words to express your feelings.
You have always used words appropriate to the subject of the discussion, and what more could we ask than that? With all due respect to truck drivers, they can't hold a candle to engineers, when it comes to colorful language, so if your vocabulary is no worse than that, you probably don't have anything to worry about, as far as offending any of us goes. Besides, if you accidentally choose a word that is truly offensive, the system should automatically modify the word to make it more "politically correct". Sooooooooo, don't worry about it--no apology needed. Ever.
Luve ya,

Not a second's thought should you waste on that, Barb.
