Well it is summertime and I thought for sure with the kids home all the time they would be bored and want to do fun things with me. Unfortunately I have to plan, beg and plead for them just to find time to go to the movies. They are all grown up with friends to play with and plans all the time. I have lost all control. I am just along for the ride now and I just need to not fight it and sit back enjoy. Not exactly what I had in mind, but I guess it is part of getting old.

acceptance
I know I am old. We have already discussed this. However I am not quite sure how to handle this stage in my life. During the school year I am home all by myself during the day. I have done my best to keep myself busy and next year I am giving myself a schedule so I do a better job at managing my time. I would like to get a "keep me busy" job, but we will see if I actually do.

awww, you are not old and it happens to the best of them! In just a few years, they'll all be your best friends and you won't even remember this time.
You have so many talents maybe you can find a few hours a day or a week volunteering your time somewhere. How close is the humanitarian center? Maybe you could volunteer at the local hospital by holding their babies who are left alone when they are doing long hospital stays. You would be good at about anything.
I am right with you girlie. friends come first and moms only exist for money and rides. this is where we stick together and find time for US
Remember the days when all you wanted was 2 seconds for yourself. Man how time flies!
Hmmm... Sounds great to me. But then I'm also potty training right now.
