Waiting for the snail mail about our RFE to come...hope it arrives today so I can respond like lightning. Husband sick with the flu (and by himself... cray5ol.gif) So I'm hoping hoping hoping it's something simple that I can respond to quickly.

Heartfelt congratulations to all of you that received approvals yesterday. I hope all of us can join you in celebrating ourselves soon!!!
