Instructor Update- Please Read!

I know everyone read my blog last week.  It might have put you in a "Pinch".  Just keep moving forward----and next week I should be able to get back up to speed if there are no bumps in the road and the mending continues. This is the first time this week that I have been able to access my computer.  I can send quick replies via phone.
Thank you for your patience.
