My kids don't want me to consider living someplace other than with them, if I need that kind of help. I took care of several older relatives, and I hope my kids don't need to help me. They would always be there for me, no matter where I am. I saw something that reminded me that my age group rely on the Internet as much as our kids, grandkids and the generations coming up. They wanted their MTV, I want my Internet! Lol
