I won't be in a place with Internet for this weekend. I learned that I have a family member in the hospital and am the only one able to take care of them. I hope that is ok with the whole thing. I know it is bad timing but cannot alter the situation

No worries - IRL stuff always comes first. Hope everything goes well in the meantime

Ahhhh... hope they get well soon

And that would never be a problem. Catch you when you can get on.

Thank you everyone who wished my family member to get well. They are recuperating and are doing well. Now that I am back i plan to go back to my regular schedule and will do the requirements ASAP.
