Tonight I am missing my family - my son, my ex-wife (Voldemort) the cats and hearing the zoo sounds in my old backyard.

I've created a new life here - but, the sad songs take me back. Tonight I listened to Beethoven. If the 2nd movement doesn't destroy you...you need to work on the heart.
Every time I see a post on this thread, it's a sad reminder that Geewhiz is no longer with us.
