I know I haven't written for abit (apart from asking questions about meds). I hope to get on here and read/reply for a change while the kids are away. I have eight days to myself.
This is crazy. My kids who stress me out and drive me nuts, have left this a.m. for vacation with their dad. I thought I would be so excited to be alone (MAYBE TOMORROW??), instead I feel so so so sad/down/lonely.
It feels depressing that they are all on vacation TOGETHER (less me). It feels like Xmas Day (HORRIBLE). As I said, I hope I won't feel like this for the eight days they are away.
I will check back later. I have made myself a hair appt. for today.
I feel the sameway on the first day of school. All summer the kids drive me crazy, but after they leave and I am all alone I suddenly feel quite depressed and lonely. Although I actually look forward to the peace and quiet, I also feel a bit left out. I think doing something for yourself, like the hair appointment is a great way to deal with these feelings. Sometimes I go (window) shopping or to the movies by myself when I feel this way. Anything to keep busy and take my mind of off things. I was also thinking of taking some classes myself...maybe Yoga, or some art, or cooking classes at the comminity college.
Hope you're feeling better tomorrow...
