    Bet you guys didn't even know I was gone! :p

    Karen's grandmother in West Virginia died last Tuesday, and I was tending to the children while she was away. Fortunately, Karen got to spend her last day with her. She and her father were at her bedside when she died.

    A snowstorm came through as she was heading back Friday... causing her to be stranded a couple (normal) hours' drive from home. She got back a day later than expected - you can bet she was missing her boys!

    Glad to be back in the swing of things... I had wanted to pass along the CCNP track update and CompTIA "clarification" news, but was unable to do so.

    Hi Michael,

    Condolences from myself and Qs. It's good to have you back though. As the guys all confirmed - it was pretty obvious you weren't about over the past week!

    If that's what gets me an infraction, I'll start collecting them like badges of honor. :twisted:
