Do any of you have an empty nest list for things you want to do when your kids are grown and out of your home? I do.
As a single mom with no family I can count on for help, it sometimes feels like I live for our survival and their raising because there is no one else here to share those responsibilities with. A very tight budget also effects my choices because there isn't much I can afford while I'm still raising them. My youngest will be 13 soon, so I figure I've got about 10 years before I'm done helping him on a regular basis.
1). I want to take vacations with no stress or worries.
2). I want to get a few pets that I want to have, and consider breeding them.
3). I'm going to have a clean and clutter free home.
4). I want the home decorated in colors that I like from curtains to paint to furniture.
5). I'm not handling/cooking raw meat again.
6). I'm getting my haircut on a regular basis.
7). I want to get into wine tasting.
8). I'm devoting more hours per week to my writing and research
9). I might give up driving and just get rides from Uber and buses (still thinking about this one).
10). I want lots of plants and flowers
