Date Posted: 23:16:30 08/17/09 Mon In reply to: 's message, "Re: Well I'm in appleton........" on 21:34:55 08/16/09 Sun Lilirish- You sound like a person up to just about any challenge. If the time comes and you are ready to look for a home in your future, I have friends in the real estate business, all be it down here in Madison, but they can help no strings attached if I ask, to help you find something up there, so you don't have to be worried about getting "taken" on a house. Like any industry there are unscrupulous people out there who like to take advantage as I am sure you already know. Don't hesitate to ask. And yes, a pet, especially one in the family so long, is a tough loss. I feel for you. Do you have family or friends in the area to help take you mind off of it? Give your young prince a hug. And take care. Have fun w/ your move and settling in. Contemplating Tom >Thanks Tom, >I'm living this continously challenged life. It gets >a bit much at times.
