Empty Nest ????

Boy if this is what it's like to have an empty nest, then I dont know if I like it.  I still have Emily at home but she's not home much, she has school and then works at night and if she's not doing that then she's with her friends. Don't get me wrong I love that she's doing really great in school and work and she's having a really great time with her friends it' just really quiet around here.


It's really bad when Jim goes to work at 4 and I'm just here by myself all night so Ive been going down to my mom's about one to two times a week, helping her with things and just hanging out. It has been nice to hang out with her and chat. Today I went down and gave her a manicure it was nice to do something that made her feel good. I really dont know how she spends so much time by herself and not be able to get out of the house when she wants to. I know she talks about how much she misses having everyone come by to visit. She just loves to look at everyone's blogs and likes seeing how all the grand kids and great grand kids are doing, but I know she would just love to see everyone in person.


I've also been hanging out with Lindsey and doing little crafty things. We seem to always start projects this time of year.  It's always fun to come up with new projects, especially since Christmas is just around the corner!
