That's very handy Sam.  Webcams are very useful to chat with my grandson.  He thinks he's watching a horror movie.   ;D

Yes, it makes a long distant relationship far less painful.

some time it makes it harder.... reminds you that you are far away... things come out wrong etc. I don't like this long distance thing at all... and am working hard at making it work.. end of the day work comes last... so I know what will give.

nope not at all... these next few days seem to have been really hard though.. probably the stupidly cold temps not helping.

It'll be even harder to go back after being home.  You should prepare yourself for that.

Yeah, I'm prepared... I think. Well I'll just go with the flow you know... I've actually gotten much better here over the last few months.
