The one where my nightmares come true

When my kids were little I worried, to the point it was almost a nightmare about when the kids were gone and it was just us.  I was so busy being a wife and a mom and working that the thought of being with just Dh was almost overwhelming.  What would we do with our time??  I hope that makes sense to someone besides myself.  Today I was talking to a friend and the subject of house sitting came up.  I said sure!  I'd come for the peace and quiet.  Then I said OH! DH and I could come and stay. Especially since no one is taking vacations this year.  Bugs is an adult but still lives at home.  Monkey is more then capable of being here by himself and with his big brother.  I was so tickled at the thought.  I remember being so scared/worried about who I would be when I wasn't busy being a mom.  I am finding myself.  I like who I am.  I am doing things I love doing.  Most of our boys are adults.  I LOVE who they are and are becoming.  I think I'm a bit shocked at how good this all feels.  Life really does march on doesn't it. 

                              Please be kind and considerate of each other and those around you.
