Refeathering the Nest
Now that we are in empty nest mode, we are focusing on our own needs, physically, educationally, regarding our home, planning for retirement, etc. Over the last 26 years I seldom took the time to truly focus on my own health needs. I found myself almost 100 lbs overweight, emotionally exhausted, and no sense of direction.
Now I'm taking the time to fix the meals I need, and to spend a good chunk of time exercising to get me healthy. I am feeling better emotionally, and I'm starting to try and find my sense of direction. I'm not trying to get younger; that ship has sailed; but I am finally truly in the driver's seat regarding the rest of my life, and I want it to be grand.
Surely I'm not alone?
