kudos to Denis--with friendships through work and children's activities, it will be nice to be able to contact people we truly care for but circumstances have separated
I've been in the Champaign area since 1978, did not graduate from college (switched majors just prior to Mary's conception). Finances as a single mom haven't allowed for frequent visits.
perhaps I should regret not having the time to participate more in extra-curricular activites. However, my work ethic and ability to not be dependent on others has served well as an example to my children and others. I finally did quit smoking pot, thank God.
