AS gave you great advice. I remember the first few weeks when my kids were gone from Monday through Wednesday and I thought I would die from missing them. However, I soon learned to maximize the quality of my time and not worry about quantity. I spent my time without kids getting housework and cleaning done so when I got kids, we could focus on homework, chores, going to the park, camping, games, etc. They helped me make dinner, learned to do laundry, and lots more.
I literally got to the point where I enjoyed the downtime, and used it to work on hobbies, read, enjoy time with friends, etc.
Keep your chin up!
Thank you JonF,
I agree that quality time is most important. I guess the most important thing will be to get through the first few weeks. Like I said I wish there was a fast forward button and a skip button. I don't know what I would be doing without this forum. I thought that I was going crazy and now I am starting to calm down and know that there will be a light at the end of the tunnel and I know this because of you guys.
