I just got off the phone with my sister (one and only sister)

who lives in Australia and who is one of the few of my siblings I really feel connected to.
I love talking to her and catching up but, afterward, I'm always left feeling a bit melancholy.

I miss her. I miss my niece and nephew and my lovely BIL, too. When you love someone a lot the miles that part you seem longer.

Thanks, Amy. I'm off to bed. It's Savagefuzzball's first day back to school, tomorrow and the morning will prove busy. Hopefully, things will look brighter, tomorrow, although the first day back to school tends to make me melancholy, too, after a full summer of having "my baby" at home with me. ;oP
