There is still some work to be done on your punctuation.
However, content is all!!

It is difficult to measure progress. But, yes, let's just agree that we are better.

Yes you have and it is a good thing. Compared to my parents generation we are very lax. When I look at things my father wrote years ago he had beutiful handwriting with the best of spelling and grammar. He had a basic education leaving school at 14 but had the three r's drummed into him (reading, 'riting and 'rithmatic).
