It's something you buy and sit at your computer. I'll ask my kids and get back to you.

My son has a Mac and I know he can set it so that others can see him. He's given friends tours of his apartment at school by walking around his apartment with his computer. Isn't that wild?

How are you doing now? I know it has been quite a while since you first posted.
My mom died on Nov 24 and my younger daughter moved out in Sept. She moved to the Midwest. Luckily she decided to come home for thanksgiving. She and mom were close. She got to visit before mom died. I really miss both of them.
I text message my daughters a lot. It works great. I don't have to have my computer with me when I feel like telling her something, and she can look at it when she has a moment. One daughter only lives a few hours away so I get to see her regularly and my younger daughter will be back next winter.
My mom always said "this too shall pass" whenever she had a problem with a child to deal with. I try to keep that in mind when I am feeling sorry for myself. I don't know if my husband misses our daughters as much as I do, he doesn't mention it much.

aunty,don't you just love getting text messages from your kids. SInce I just learned to text a few months ago, I get so tickled when they text me. It always makes me smile! How old are your children?

I am sorry to hear about your mom's death? How is the mourning process going? I lost my mom five years ago. Tiem definitely helps but I still find myself missing her at Christmas. So much of what I do is because of what she did around the holidays so I think of her often.
