Happy new year, Moms.
I remember when my kids went to their father's I had three days where
I didn't know what to do with myself.
You may experience this feeling when your kids are grown and go to
school or live on their own.
My thought is that we are so programmed to do for others, when no one
is there to tend we lose our focus.
That is why it is urgently important to take care of doing for
yourself along the way. Then, it's not such a shock
when you have more time. I liken this to when men retire. Statistics
show men often die within 3-4 years (?) of leaving their jobs unless
they have integrated a hobby they love into their lives.
The phrase d of the day is integrate and embed kindness to yourself
into your routine.
What would the world do without moms!
I say Mom is Wow spelled upside down.
Best,
Michelle Cubas

Hey Kristy I talk to people on the dating site plenty of fish... it passing the lonely hours and there are men on there that are strictly only seeking talk/email and not necessarily dating. It is lonely---I agree.

Thanks ladies for all the good advice and encouragement. I did not give my friends enough credit in my last post. They are all wonderful and are more than willing to come hangout with me or invite me over to hang with their families. I guess I feel the need to learn how to be alone. I shouldn't have to be surrounded by people all the time. Yes, I work full time and the kids are only gone 2 nights a week so I am really busy. I tried the meetup site and found some cool groups in my area. Thanks for the advice.

HI,
I am a single mom as well, my problem is I am still having a hard time filling my days and nights. I rarely have adult companionship and it is very hard to deal with, my emotions get the best of me, it gets lonely. Try really hard to fill your time, it will make a difference, I am sure.

Hi there, I am also a single mom. I remember the feeling all too well. Still happens but it gets easier. I agree...go ahead and ask...you never know who would be willing to get together, they might be looking for an opportunity to ask you but not know how, so go for it, all they can say is no I figure.
