Something else that I'm going thru is, I need to find myself. I went from living with my parents, to living with a college roommate, to living with my husband. I have NEVER lived on my own. I have always been a part of a couple. We had our first child after being married only a year and a half. I have centered the past 22 years around my children and my H. I have one D still at home with me, the other two hours away at college. YD is busy with school, friends, boyfriend, activities. I'm fine with that. I'm glad she has things to keep her busy and happy.
This leaves me with time. Time to figure out who I am. I have found out some new things about myself. I was a reserved and "follow the schedule" kind of woman, because of my family. I really thought that's who I was.
I have realize that I'm a lot more fun and relaxed. I'm a "roll the windows down on the car, crank the music up and sing along with Def Leppard" kind of woman. I decided to get a tattoo, small tattoo. I NEVER would have done that before. I did it and I LOVE IT!!! It makes me feel more free.
