Now that our grandkids are near college graduation and our kids have their own lives & friends we're lucky to see them a few times a year. We do use Facetime and the phone on a weekly basis. You'll get over it real fast. Like some folks here say, just get a dog because they prefer dogs to kids down here!  We'd like to have homes in both places but at least for us that's not financially possible. |

I joined the site in 2008, bought my first TV home in 2021. It didn't take ME long to decide. Convincing DW took 13 years.
