Hi all, Struggling today.  Thinking I can’t possibly get through March let alone the rest of my life!  I have had the flu for the last 2 days.  I made my daughter’s favorite dinner last night…salmon, sweet potatoes, and green beans.  She had a friend over.  Today, she is at work.  I am taking it easy.  Soon I will get ready and take her shopping and then dinner at a pub downtown.  I still have the chills and am so tired.  I realized today that I never give myself a break, even when I am sick.  Still beating myself up.  She is staying again tonight.  I am thinking that this empty nest thing, like many things in life, is a paradox.  So glad to be spending time with my daughter, but  so glad to get back to my empty nest, too!
