Warm by recent standards?
1:10 am
puglet
oh yes! like spring-lol
1:11 am
Lizlin
Such exaggeration!!! LOL
1:12 am
Lizlin
Half way - BBS
1:12 am
puglet
I think its been over a month since we've seen temps over 20's
1:13 am
puglet
later then Liz
1:13 am
VolleymomDee
definitely a cold, snowy winter... couldn't believe the whiteout we had this afternoon.
1:14 am
puglet
did you get the winter mix yesterday Dee
1:15 am
puglet
we had rain, snow and freezing rain--so its icy out but its melting too
1:15 am
VolleymomDee
Snow is much better than freezing precipitation... hate ice.
1:16 am
VolleymomDee
We are supposed to make a day trip to Indy on Thursday... hope the forecast is as warm as they say now.
1:16 am
puglet
I hate it too---I would choose the snow between the two
1:17 am
VolleymomDee
Agree!
1:17 am
puglet
I know this warm spell isnt to last long so Iam not sure about thursday
1:20 am
VolleymomDee
this grid went quickly until I hit 55 left... now I am at 46 left and at a standstill... I'll be using lickety early I think
1:27 am
flosey
hi everyone, just back from bridge
1:27 am
VolleymomDee
hi flosey!! Hope bridge went well!
1:28 am
flosey
Dee - would have to say it was fun - not in the top counters
1:29 am
VolleymomDee
Glad I never got hooked on bridge - I fear I would have taken it much too seriously.
1:29 am
flosey
we did for quite a few years, went to lots of tournaments, but not lately
1:30 am
VolleymomDee
I have an uncle, who was a master player many years ago in Georgia.
1:31 am
VolleymomDee
His serious attitude toward bridge may be why I chose less competitive games :)
1:32 am
flosey
well, non of our kids play if that says anything
1:32 am
VolleymomDee
LOL...
1:33 am
flosey
one son diddles a bit online but never with real people, has played at our club with hubby when he visits - and they did come first
1:33 am
VolleymomDee
We played different forms of euchre - can talk and not pay attention, yet still do well. My hubby isn't a great card player, also probably why we never played bridge except for fun with my parents.
1:34 am
flosey
ah, now that is one the kids did play
1:34 am
VolleymomDee
wow... some intrinsic talent then
1:34 am
VolleymomDee
perhaps a generational thing, also
1:35 am
flosey
at HS, the grade 13s had a lounge, that's probably where they picked it up
1:36 am
VolleymomDee
I think I learned in our work lounge in the 70's. Everyone who played seemed to be having so much fun - lots of laughter.
1:38 am
flosey
we did that - we kept a dish of pennies in our desk, can't think of the name of the game
1:39 am
flosey
I didn't play cards until I met hubby, first learned cribbage
1:39 am
VolleymomDee
gin rummy
1:39 am
flosey
ah yes, that was it
1:39 am
VolleymomDee
I always wanted to learn that!
1:40 am
VolleymomDee
LOL my grandparents had a jar on their kitchen table; I think they played nightly after they retired... that brought back fond memories.
1:40 am
flosey
I couldn't tell you now, that was before we were married - coming up to 53 years
1:40 am
VolleymomDee
Wow!
1:47 am
flosey
almost as old as dirt, eh!
1:47 am
VolleymomDee
I'm not far behind, so I would never even hint at that!!

Hugs and Hi Rose and congrats
2:13 am
grannyrose
{{hugs}} and hi and thanx, pugs. liz, not too bad actually. i have found getting on the bike after the physio helps a lot.*shrug* i know it doesn't make sense.
2:14 am
Lizlin
Makes sense to me - muscles looser?
2:14 am
grannyrose
and i have actually dropped my strong pain meds. by 1 tablet today. so all is good.
2:14 am
Lizlin
Fantastic!
2:15 am
puglet
its progress Rose--happy for you
2:15 am
grannyrose
hmmm, i think the cycling helps the muscles to quieten? and the stiffness is less, too.
2:15 am
flosey
very tired tonight, off to bed, goodnight all

Lizlin
The site seems really unstable over the last few days.
2:21 am
puglet
it could be from all the weird weather
2:21 am
grannyrose
hello?? is it safe to come out now?
2:22 am
Lizlin
Who knows? I just know that like lots of other babblers, it's irritating.
2:22 am
Lizlin
Not the babblers!
2:22 am
puglet
are you there Rose
2:22 am
Lizlin
meant to say, like lots of other babblers, I find it irritating!

2:24 am
grannyrose
have been reveling in the ice-dancing. and i saw our silver medalist in the men's aerial jump. he was amazing.
2:25 am
puglet
thats what Iam watching now
2:25 am
Lizlin
I've completely missed out on the Olympics - I love some of the events - ski jump, slalom, ice skating etc but hubby's not interested.
2:25 am
grannyrose
i sooo like it. it's amazing how in sync those skaters are.
2:26 am
grannyrose
oh, dear, liz. you need a second tv in your house.
2:26 am
Lizlin
Prefer ice skating to ice dancing - more acrobatic!
2:26 am
puglet
I know---some of them are so good and fun to watch
2:26 am
Lizlin
We have - but we just like to spend the evenings together! He puts up with me watching UK soccer, when my team plays!!!
2:26 am
Lizlin
I put up with him watching cricket!
2:26 am
grannyrose
ice skating...ice dancing...it is all somthing i will never be able to do now.
2:27 am
Lizlin
lol! I never could!
2:27 am
puglet
me either Liz
2:28 am
grannyrose
which reminds me...did i tell you all i found my ballet slippers?
2:28 am
Lizlin
I went ice skating twice or perhaps a bit more as a teen, and needed to wear supports to keep my balance!
2:28 am
Lizlin
They'll match your tutu!
2:28 am
puglet
I dont remember Rose
2:28 am
Lizlin
Good that you found them, though. I know that they mean a lot to you.
2:28 am
grannyrose
lolol, liz. those supports would be called the arms of your friends with you.
2:29 am
puglet
I cant even roller skate let alone ice skate
2:29 am
Lizlin
No! They had ankle supports - really the only way I could keep my balance. I'd've dragged friends down with me!!!
2:29 am
puglet
do they still fit Rose-lol
2:29 am
Lizlin
I can't roller skate either!
2:32 am
grannyrose
actually pugs, they do. guess your feet don't expand like your waist-line.
2:33 am
Lizlin
They do if you walk around bare foot most of the time :(
2:34 am
puglet
you should frame them and your tutu and put them in your music room
2:35 am
Lizlin
That's a lovely idea - or get them bronzed or similar and give them to Claudia - btw, did I tell you that I love the new photos of your grandkids?
2:39 am
grannyrose
thanx liz. i think they are kinda cute myself. i have washed the ribbons, ironed them and they are hanging in our bedroom. the tutu?? i'm taking it to a dry-cleaner to see if they can clean it. my mother had it stored incorrectly and the tulle has been flattened.
2:40 am
Lizlin
Hope they can restore it for you.
2:41 am
grannyrose
and i found a photo of myself in my first tutu. lol...i remember being so proud of it. i was 8 ye4s old.
2:41 am
Lizlin
Oh wow! That's awesome! Really something special to have and to show Claudia.
2:42 am
puglet
you should post it for us to see
2:42 am
Lizlin
All these wonderful things you're finding :)
2:42 am
grannyrose
okay, sounds like dinner is on it's way. hope i can catch you afterwards. xoxox. pugs, that is on my list of ' to do's '
2:42 am
Lizlin
Bon appétit, Rose. Catch you tomorrow, hopefully. Hugss.
2:42 am
puglet
okay Rose, enjoy
2:44 am

How are you doing with the grid, Pugs?

good morning all :)
2:44 am

Iam down to 106
2:44 am

Hi sprite :)
2:44 am

good morning Sprite--hugs
2:44 am

Good going there.
2:45 am

*hugs pugs and Liz* How are you today, my friends?
2:45 am
puglet
ty, Iam going to have to go to Lickety before long
2:45 am
Lizlin
Fine and happy to have the car back :)
2:45 am
sprite
ah good, Liz!
2:45 am
puglet
Iam good and how are you and how was yesterday
2:45 am
Lizlin
Also thinking about going to lickety soon.
2:46 am
puglet
oh good for you Liz!
2:46 am
sprite
yesterday was good. And I lost 2,4 kilo!
2:46 am
Lizlin
Got it at lunchtime today. It's driving so well, now.
2:46 am
Lizlin
Awesome, Sprite :)
2:46 am
sprite
so glad you are enjoyed the new car now, Liz
2:46 am
puglet
ALRIGHT! Sprite
2:47 am
sprite
so that makes it official, pug. When I eat 5 or 6 meals a day, I lose weight. When I skip meals, I don't. Isn't that weird?
2:47 am
Lizlin
Yes, though I've got to get used to it having less po 5 than our last one - need to use the gears more.
2:48 am
Lizlin
That's the principle of the diet from the gym I go to - eat 5 times a day.
2:48 am
puglet
no it isnt Sprite
2:48 am
puglet
when you eat that many times , you dont over do it at one setting
2:49 am
Lizlin
combine it with walking or cycling to help boost the metabolism, and you're well away there.
2:50 am
sprite
it is consistent with the Gabriel method. He says our bodies have two modes. Hibernation mode and active mode. Skipping meals often puts us in hibernation mode.
2:50 am
sprite
will do, Liz. Have had a couple of bad weeks after the flu, but really want to get it back on the road.
2:50 am
puglet
with sugar problems skipping is bad bad bad! You just going to have to make yourself take care of yourself
2:51 am
sprite
oh, using the gears will become second nature soon enough, Liz, once you are used to this car.
2:51 am
Lizlin
Hopefully you're beginning to get your strength back - that flu really dragged on.
2:51 am
Lizlin
True, sprite. I've always driven geared cars - it's just getting used to the different ratios when changing between gears.
2:52 am
Lizlin
It's a 1.3 engine as opposed to 1.5.
2:52 am
sprite
pug, darling, I know you are right! It's just that sometimes it seems too hard and I don't care enough. Some days I am just too darned tired to care.
2:52 am
sprite
ah, that makes a difference for sure, Liz.
2:53 am
Lizlin
OK - time for dinner here - 79 left and I guess I'll be looking at lickety later this evening. Enjoy your days and hugs :)
2:53 am
sprite
bye Liz *hugs*
2:53 am
puglet
on the days you feel good make things ahead that will be easy for you to just grab--maybe that will help somewhat
2:53 am
puglet
bye and hugs Liz
2:54 am
sprite
that is a good idea. I should really make a list of easy snacks and meals and prepare for them.
2:55 am
rubyfoo
good morning

Morning Ruby, hugs

I have to say, pug, those 2,4k gave me a boost.
2:56 am
rubyfoo
I'm in the process of training Raffie not to be so timid so for the 4th day, I walked her while B was walking Rufie. She is an angel-dog!
2:57 am
sprite
awesome, ruby! And so good for you to have walks as well.
2:57 am
rubyfoo
|It is probably good for me, too, but it is hard work and a very brisk walk
2:57 am
puglet
making real progress Ruby, yay for you
2:57 am
rubyfoo
snap, sprite
2:58 am
puglet
You should feel good Sprite, you are doing good and Iam so happy for you--heres a big gold star--lol
2:58 am

apero is not valid, ruby! Isn't that evil?
2:59 am
sprite
thanks pug :D Your support means a lot to me.
2:59 am
rubyfoo
it is at my house andb is already having his!
3:00 am
sprite
wow that is early
3:01 am
rubyfoo
Hr is a mess and very depressed, so I can't really say no. He is sitting in front of the fire with his Campari and will probably take a nap before lunch
3:01 am
puglet
its so slick outside my poor dogs was having a hard time going out to do their jobs
3:01 am
sprite
my girl is ill :( Yesterday too. Have her at home and she sleeps a lot.
3:02 am
puglet
did she catch the flu
3:02 am
sprite
no reason not to let him have it, indeed, ruby. If it relaxes him, it is worth it.
3:02 am
rubyfoo
Does Caya have "your" flu?
3:03 am
sprite
I think so, pug, though she has no fever. But she is tired, looks like a little racoon and feels awful.
3:03 am
sprite
think so, ruby
3:03 am
sprite
derp is not a word??
3:03 am
puglet
the rest will be good for her
3:04 am
rubyfoo
and she'll have a day with her mom fussing over her, also good!
3:04 am
sprite
hehehe true!
3:04 am
puglet
I hope she gets well before her party
3:05 am
sprite
oh dear, yes, had not even thought of that. Well, almost a week... let's hope so.
3:06 am
rubyfoo
she will!
3:07 am
sprite
I will tell her she will be ok, because ruby said so!
3:07 am
puglet
That flu doesnt leave very quickly--so I hope so too for you guys
3:08 am
puglet
I hope you dont re get too--:(
3:08 am
sprite
good grief, no.
3:08 am
puglet
Ruby send over your magical powers
3:09 am
rubyfoo
if it is the same flu, sprite, I don't think you can get it again
3:09 am
rubyfoo
abracadabra!!!!
3:10 am
sprite
I think you are right, ruby. I have heard that you make antibodies for each flu or other virus you get and won't become ill from the exact same one again.
3:10 am
sprite
of course, over the years most flu viruses mutate enough to count as new, lol
3:11 am
rubyfoo
but since you just had it, you self-innoculated
3:12 am
sprite
I think so too. Stupid bugs.
3:12 am
puglet
she's the last in your family to get it isnt she
3:13 am
sprite
yes indeed
3:13 am
puglet
well maybe this will be the end of it for all of you
3:15 am
sprite
amen to that, pug
3:15 am

3:54 am
sprite
not bad, zooz. Lost 2,4 kilo last week :)
3:55 am
zoozzoom
Well done although did not know you were trying to lose weight...or was it because of the flu virus you had?
3:56 am
sprite
am in therapy for my eating disorder. I am very obese and losing weight would really be good, for the diabetes and high blood pressure and cholestorole and all.
3:57 am
zoozzoom
Then you are doing well!...keep it going.
3:58 am
sprite
thank you :) Intend to... am glad I am finally starting to really lose weight.
4:00 am
zoozzoom
I hear at first the weight seems to come off in chunks but as time goes on it tapers off..so do not lose heart..just keep at it.
4:01 am

4:06 am
sprite
hi Jjenny :)
4:07 am
sprite
re9 = to place again, or put in the bank again
4:08 am
Jivingjenny0
good morning sprite - I too am trying to loose weight but finding it very difficult possibly because I am very crippled at the moment and cant do any exercise.
4:08 am
Jivingjenny0
thanks for the 9 Sprite
4:09 am
sprite
oh same for me, Jjenny, am handicapped and can't move around much. What I am learning now is to eat healthy, and then 6 times a day. Three regular meals and 3 healthy snacks in between.
4:09 am
zoozzoom
Thanks for the 9
4:09 am
sprite
that way you convince your body there will always be enough fuel and it will start letting go of excess fat.
4:09 am
sprite
what is crippling you, Jjenny?
4:10 am
Jivingjenny0
Right I WILL try that Sprite
4:10 am
sprite
also important: to sleep enough and to drink enough.
4:11 am
Jivingjenny0
I have poly myalgia rhuematica which makes all my muscles ache and Arthritis in my hips and knees
4:11 am
Jivingjenny0
I really don't sleep very well because I get so uncomfortable after a couple of hours
4:11 am
sprite
oh, that sounds so painful :( Am so sorry.
4:13 am
Jivingjenny0
I try not to complain but sometimes it is difficult!! The treatment for PMR is steroids but last time I took them I was very ill afterwards
4:15 am
sprite
I hope you feel free to vent here now and then... venting is not complaining :)
Steroids are heavy stuff... sorry to hear you get ill from them.
4:16 am
puglet
Iam with Sprite, Jenny--it helps just venting sometimes
4:16 am
Jivingjenny0
I don't really know if the steroids caused it but I had a large pulmonary embolism and if it hadn't been for the paramedic arriving at our house in 3 minutes i would have died
4:16 am
sprite
puglet is the one who told me venting is not the same as complaining :)
4:17 am
sprite
that is scary, Jjenny. I can understand you are rather skittish to try that again.
4:17 am
puglet
do you live alone Jenny
4:18 am
Jivingjenny0
no my husband and adult daughter live here too, they are both very good to me and do loads of the work so I am not complaining about them. poof
4:19 am
sprite
that is awesome. I hope you have a good day, Jjenny.
4:22 am
puglet
Sprite did you get to talk to your lady doctor about after she leaves
4:23 am
sprite
no not yet, pug. Was thinking to let her get the first wave of reactions out of the way. Might write her an email today.
4:24 am
puglet
for you sake I hope you find some way to keep her in your life
4:25 am
sprite
I probably will, lol. But not as a therapist. She is going to work together with the psychiatrist who does the Family Constellations. And I will keep on attending those.
4:29 am
sprite
fireflies. Am gonna get dressed and so on. *hugs* pug, I hope you will have a blessed day and a peaceful night. All of you, actually. Give Rose a hug from me too.

10:59 am
MollyL
Same here Sue, going to the DMV is a nightmare. We do have an express place though for the simpler things.
10:59 am
JenMO16

Fortunately, I can do most of my DMV dealings by mail.

11:09 am
MollyL
What gets me is the couple, out to dinner at a restaurant, who sit there madly typing on their phones and not talking to each other.
11:09 am
periwinkle
that is sad, Molls
11:10 am

12:15 pm
Uneaixoise
heard on NPR this morning that there's a clown shortage . . . may the numbers continue to decline!!
12:15 pm
MollyL
Oh God, not another one scared of clowns.
12:15 pm
rubyfoo
I've disliked clowns since I was little kid, but some people are actually phobic
12:16 pm
rubyfoo
I think the scared people are all in movies
12:16 pm
rubyfoo
I'm scared of cell phones lol
12:16 pm
MollyL
Oh no, I know two people who are terrified of clowns.
12:17 pm
Uneaixoise
funny thing, molly -- my daughter (who's now 37) was little, a friend, that she adored, dressed up as a clown and came to over to my mom's where we were visiting -- she took one look at him and went into hysterical crying!
12:17 pm

he had to rip off the wig, nose, etc. to calm her down LOL

Only 2500 registered clowns worldwide. who knew
12:19 pm
Uneaixoise
and the numbers are dwindling . . . tick tick tick . . . (yay!)
12:19 pm
rubyfoo
that's a very small number; I'm surprised. But maybe it's the unregistered ones who are the villains
12:19 pm
cosdem
older generastions dying out ansd the younger people dont want to become clowns. makes sense
12:19 pm
Uneaixoise
ruby! LOL
12:20 pm
rubyfoo
which are worse, clowns or mimes?
12:20 pm
Uneaixoise
at least mimes aren't scary
12:21 pm
rubyfoo
creepy, though. My son has a friend who went to university with him who is a fire-eater at "faires"
12:22 pm
MollyL
Clowns get a bad rap. All they want to do is make people laugh and people go around being scared of them. MIMES ARE SCARY AS HELL.
12:22 pm
Uneaixoise
interesting, molly -- i feel just the opposite
12:23 pm
Uneaixoise
i associate clowns with circuses . . . and i've always disliked circuses

I op4/5ened this websi4/4 early this morning and found 175 words. I am no way ne 4/4 fireworks, but here is a story la 5/12 with clues to re 4/5 for my de 4/5 Babble friends.I live in an ar4/4 where it snows a lot. However, I'm aw 4/9 about getting 7 snowstorms in 7 weeks.That is ra 4/4. Mother Nature has de 7/36ed la 5/14s and la 5/14s of snow this year. The snow has already lo5/18ed my gutters.I'm scared our roof is going to cave in.Hubby went to Home De 5/14 and Lo 4/8's In Pa 4/9ing, NY to get a roof rake and they we4/8 both sold out. I am a pr 6/27 now & I pr4/7 that we don't get a whole lo 4/5 of snow his week because I refuse to shovel again. I do not give a do4/5 if I cannot leave house. After shoveling for over 4 hours last week, I think I have ea4/4ed the right to refuse to shovel snow again.I do not need to drive on the ro 4/5s because I am on vacation now. I sw5/18, if we get another snowstorm&I lose another day of Spring break, I am going to call in sick to work anyway. Da4/5 it! Husband has wa 4/8ed me that he wants the laptop. How da 4/5 he take the computer away from me! I am going to get off of my re 4/4end now and go watch the Matthew Pe 5/16 film "Fools Rush In". I hope to be back re 4/4 soon to chat and help clue some more. Goodbye!

Hello periwinkle! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid.
6:04 pm
periwinkle
hi Min, I am good and you?
6:25 pm
Minveryork
I am well. I just did "What Dog Breed Are You" quiz and I'm a Golden Retriever. I do not agree with results of this quiz.
6:50 pm
Minveryork
Hello LuvB! How are you doing today? Welcome to the grid
6:50 pm
stidgmere
Goldens are very nice dogs. I have a friend for whom Goldens are her favorite breed.
6:52 pm
LuvB
hello. Thanks. I am good and you
6:53 pm
MollyL
What kind of dog do you think you are Min?
6:55 pm
Minveryork
I don't know, but I am definitely NOT a Golden Retriever. I was hoping I would be the same as my dog, a King Charles.
6:56 pm
lilliann
Hi Gmere. i love Golden retrievers, we had one and they are kind, loving and sweet
6:57 pm
MollyL
That is why I think the quiz put Min in the Golden group. She is loving, kind and sweet ♥
6:57 pm
lilliann
They are very soft natured, so how do you class yourself then Minver?
6:58 pm
Minveryork
Here the results of that quiz I took:"Laid-back, sociable and well-groomed, you've got your own hip little pack of groupies who just love to be around you. You have a brain inside that adorable head of yours,though you use it mostly to organize your hectic social calendar. You never poop out at parties, and since you're popular with ladies and men, as well as children and adults, you dish out your wit,charm & luck to whomever is close enough to bask in it.The top dog likes you and wants to be your best friend, despite the fact that he doesn't really know what the heck you do. No one does, in fact, but everyone loves you all the same.A true foodie, you have got your keen ears fine-tuned to make sure you do not miss out on the opening of a trendy new place to nosh. But your youthful days of being able to wolf down food 24-7 are wagging behind you, meaning you have got to watch what you eat so you do not pull a Brando and outgrow your coats.
6:59 pm
Minveryork
My dog is also loving, kind and sweet.I prefer smaller dogs.
6:59 pm
stidgmere
So just watch the extra desserts 24 7 and you're good Min.
6:59 pm
MollyL
I love Golden Retrievers. I think being classified as "like them" is a compliment.
6:59 pm
Minveryork
Other famous Golden Retrievers are Bono, Julia Roberts, Robert Redford and Joe Montana.
7:00 pm
lilliann
that definitely sounds like a Golden Retriever
7:00 pm
Minveryork
I grew up with Golden Retrievers.My parents love them too
7:01 pm
MollyL
Min wants to be Jack. : D
7:01 pm
Minveryork
I just Had to laugh at the hectic social calendar part of my results. My hectic social calendar is me being in Babbleland
7:02 pm
lilliann
So, what's the problem MIn.At the end of the day, these things are fun, not to be taken literally!! :)
7:03 pm
lilliann
So is mine sadly Min :)
7:04 pm
lilliann

7:09 pm
MollyL

7:21 pm
lilliann

7:27 pm
Minveryork
I just took another dog quiz at Brainfall.com. Here are my results:
7:28 pm
Minveryork
You are a St. Bernard. You are a diligent worker. You are the one that usually takes on the tougher of jobs. Combined with your courage, you are a remarkably admirable companion.
7:30 pm
lilliann
My Husban's ex has 2 St Bernards.Or she did, i know they got a puppy who was as big as a horse but hat was about 5 years ago.I'd like one of them, they could pull me around in my chair and so we both get out:)
7:31 pm
Minveryork
I should have quit while I was ahead. Quizfarm.com says I am a chihuahua!
7:33 pm
lilliann
I would quit now MIn.At the end of the day, it doesn't matter what breed of dog you are, as to us here you are a lovely, warm hearted giving person:)

And the raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting
On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door;
And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon's that is dreaming.
And the lamplight o'er him streaming throws his shadow on the floor;
And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor
Shall be lifted---nevermore!And the raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting
On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door;
And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon's that is dreaming.
And the lamplight o'er him streaming throws his shadow on the floor;
And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor
Shall be lifted---nevermore!

he is 14 and he and his father have an up and down relationship. He loves him but is frightened of him at the same time, so lots of tension

yeah, that is a bad double, isn't it? my kids were the same re their dad.

Bugsaw
he is a good kid and he KNOWS his mother loves him so he is protected
11:53 pm

it's a long trip for someone his age. i hope he comes through it okay. poor kid, to have his dad so far away.
