Thank you for the detailed response. It truly makes me feel like you are a real person other than just a handle name @k4r1nn. I think you have a great plan and I totally respect your enthusiasm to peruse a career in chemical tech. Wow! That stuff is way over my head.
I'm really appreciative of your kind words. Yes I've chosen quite a unique path in life. Living out of a backpack for over 11 years now! But I wouldn't change it for the world.
As far as up-votes. I wouldn't say I'm concerned or worried about them. I just want those who support me to know they are greatly appreciated. You are greatly appreciated along with the little guys with no SP but just enjoy my blog and frequent it often.
My experience here has been deeply rewarding in many ways, and I'm looking forward to keeping up with you Karen, as a great steemit friend! I'll be in-touch! -Dan
