Aphelion

Ok, I've got one written for this, but I need to let it sit for a day or two before I send it. I might decide I need to change something, and I don't normally write one this fast. Best to wait a bit, and make sure everything makes sense.

Ok, I'm in.

I'll try to send one in. Since my daughter died last March, I haven't felt much like writing. I should try to write according to grief counselors.

It's been a depressing year for me. My daughter died, my wife's favorite nephew died the same week, then on 6Nov17 my brother died. I'm been trying to write and go forth with me life, but it's like I'm in a shell---just moving but not feeling.

Thanks for your concern.

" I didn't know about this...also to me this hasn't been a pleasing, or funny year, at all, given the loss in my family..."

Sorry for your loss. I know it's hard.

You have my condolences.

Well, Dan is on the east coast of the US, but I don't think he gave a time on the 27th. By a reasonable hour, probably...
