You don't look real happy in the pic.



But it's much better than your avitar.

Again



Relax you'll be fine. It's a big step for all of us. My wife, as of 12 Aug, has put up with me 23 years - God bless her - I could have never done that.

Congrats to you and your fiancé.

Always remember this - Happy Wife Happy Life.

It's my motto.
