Well, today was the first ride since doing some service on the sprockets and derailers and I still have some derailer work to do. It shifts and rides flawlessly unless I'm trying to shift into the largest front gear and I'm not pedaling fast enough, so that needs to be pushing a little harder and I also noticed that when I'm in the second gear in front and in one of the lower gears in the rear I'm getting slippage which I'm going to assume is the chain after the servicing so I'm going to spring for a new chain this upcoming weekend and get that going. Still crossing my fingers that the cassette in the rear isn't too damaged to accept a new chain.

Thanks for the info about flipping the sprockets Gregte. I'll have to look to see how, if possible, to do this on mine.
