I so understand . This is NOT what I had planned at all. I was just thinking the other day. I turn 60 this year . How did that happen? lol My brain doesn't feel 60 , my minds eye doesn't see that woman I see in the mirror. Going from being an extremely active person one day,it seems, to someone who gets sooo exhausted just going up stairs , who can't go out at night,(I was always out and about) etc. I am not in a lot of pain so that is something to be thankful for. As far as being an empty nester I never felt that cause I only had my own place for a short time before my son moved back in , then another short time before I had to move in with DD and now since she lost her house with my brother and his daugher and granddaughter (17) . I would love to have a place all to my lonesome. lol
