Soooo glad you're feeling better!  What a great idea, to take advantage of this time and your benefits to get another kind of training.  Don't know anything about millwrights either, but the work sounds like it's right up your alley.

Glad to hear that proverbial window opened for you.  And you're feeling the breeze.

I am impressed. The thought of going back to school after the recent ordeals seems bold. I'm all for you bro, though I know nothing about millwrights other than they make things square and level. I think that would have been tough to do during TX. Good luck to you!
