What you said in bold above is so true. I experienced that with my siblings. Over the years, 2 of us moved away and yet all 4 of us seem closer now than ever before. When we are all together we treasure every moment and our conversations are much deeper. I felt the same way about my parents. I would describe my time with them when I would visit as quality time versus the quantity time, running in and out, that my siblings spent with them that lived nearby. I think when you are around each other all the time, the tendency is to take each other for granted. What you expressed, and did so well, I hope will help many others who want to be in TV but feel torn because of leaving family back home.

Enjoy every minute, as I know you will. Watching your family grow and continuing to spend quality time with them while you still have it on this earth is the best reason to continue the good work you are doing to better your health. God bless you all, my friend.

Thanks, Mrs. Abby, they went to the Animal Kingdom today and I am not doing Nothing with my free time, I'm going back to sleep. LOL. Still pooped!
