I too, was all lost; on what Emmie, was asking. I was never a great student of grammar. But, knew how valuable it is to make your point.

That said, nobody needs hit all the points of grammar; in this friendly chat forum. But it never hurts, to do the best ya can; anyway.

Just saying, Mandy

Total agree, Mindy --- The big thing is writing to be understood. I believe you are using a semi-colon all wrong; (as I just did) but it doesn't matter as it helps make what you want to say clearer.

Just occurs it's not unlike giving a spanking. I never demanded perfect, but lack of trying, that was different.

I (Mandy), have something to tell you; Mindy.

The rule for coma, & semi-colon; is...
In a sentence, where only 1 is used. A comma for a break, in the sentence. If same thought,continues.
If the thought changes; you use a semi-colon.

Where muti breaks, are used; it's like this:
Coma, semi-colen; coma, to be proper.

(Unless, it's part of a list.)
Then you use commas, until the last item; in the list.
That then should be followed, by a semi-colon.

Does that make any, sense to you ?
