If you have only been at this a week, congratulations, you will enjoy it. Do you want to be added to the Bullock mailing list? You seem to be catching on rapidly, and if you need any help please ask. I am not sure if you and my wife are teh same lines, but there are many on the bullock list who will also be reading this. There may be oe or more who recognize your names, dates and places, and will contact you directly.
