Hi, guys:

Well, I did have a breakthrough the night after my last post. I changed my tape and my approach (more about this after the weekend), and NOW am getting results. Wish me a productive weekend; I will give a progress report (and more detail) later.

Thanks to all who cared enough to respond--it is really helpful to verbalize this in a safe setting, and to get feedback and suggestions.

Wishing a great weekend to all!
