Well, I haven't posted a lot of details of late....

But after my divorce being finalized late last year....I watched my two kids prematurely leave the nest.

My 18 year old daughter has decided to strike out on her own (she seems to be doing really well)...

and My 16 year old boy is in Maryland going to school. (I've home schooled him his entire life - we both needed a change of pace).

It is absolutely amazing to me how one can adjust and readjust ones life.

Once a wife.....am no longer (after 21 years)
Once a stay at home, homeschooling mom....now an empty nester.

I have to tell you that I do walk around my cute little place, and thank God for all of my blessings. I am perhaps the most blessed gal on the planet.

So....I thought it might be fun to celebrate the blessings of an empty nest.
---------------------------------
blessings of an empty nest:

The other day, I bought groceries and thought, "hmmmm, all this food will be here until I eat it".

I can walk through the house naked OR in my undies, and NOBODY will notice. lol

Things are always where I left them (even if that's on the floor)

When I clean the house - it stays clean....unless I mess it up.


Anybody else have blessings from the empty nest?????


Life is a journey, isn't it.

hugs,

danita
