Scorpio I came from a family where no one ever left the family. Oh they all married but managed to stay within shouting distance of one another raising their kids (us) and living their lives. I moved away first and then my two sisters left town and we are all spread out not having seen one another for too many years now. My own sons which I put my whole life into practically and who depended on me for everything, married and although in the same town I rarely see them. They both work, wives work, 2 grandkids are grown & married and one is in school. My life as yours has slowed down nicely but their lives are so busy and so full. I know they love me but yet I am not part of their lives the way I want to be. It happens to us all, thing change. I fortify myself knowing they are healthy and happy and take the good when it is offered with what I precive as the bad, not seeing them all the time. Thats life....bummer!
