On The Road Again

As of yesterday, my girls are going on another road trip with their Dad this week. That means two more nights of peace and quiet and the possibility of wearing whatever I want to bed. I should be so excited. This is what I have been longing for for the past 8 years. Time to myself every once in a while. Time to be just one person and responsible for no one but myself.

But it's not what I thought it would be. Come to find out, I have no idea what I like to do. When they are away even for a Saturday, I find myself sitting in my house starring at the TV with no idea what I could do. I don't say that to gain sympathy or "dates". It's just that I didn't realize how much I depend on my kids to fill up my life....wow....that's a lot of responsibility to put on them.

So I guess we will see what this week brings. Maybe it won't be as weird as I think. Maybe I will go for a long walk in the park or have a movie night with a movie I want to watch. Or maybe I'll crawl in my bed at 7 o'clock and read until midnight. Or maybe I'll go out with friends. I don't really know. Whatever it is, I am going to decide to learn what I like to do and who I am in this new phase of my divorced life.

Thanks for joining me on this ride. I appreciate the company.

That sounds like a big realization, MB. Enjoy getting reacquainted with yourself, friend.
