Well, I've become a grandmother here and that's been delightful. It helps with the ache of having my husband and son back home, but I've hope to see them here again someday. Having been an astronaut has definitely been an 'entirely awesome' experience and what got me to where I am life, though I do miss traveling among the stars.
