Hello! Don't apologize for that, it happens. :wink: I see that Pierre already gave you the link I wanted to give you, so that's cool. Welcome!

So am I. Well, 39 and some months, as some comedian used to say. Can't remember which comedian, but I think he said it right up until he died in his 70s or 80s. Welcome to the Mint forums, momoftwogirls! If you have more questions, don't hesitate to ask. That's what we're here for!

Don't apologize for being only 39. As you get older, you will catch on to more of this stuff.
