Hi Ursula,Even though this post is a few months old, I thought I’d chime in just in case you’re still working through this or for future projects.

All the best and keep us posted on your progress.

Getting right to the purpose of my post, with all the relevant context: I’m 52 and living near Seattle.

Mel, I appreciate your post and acting smart into something you are not invested into.
