[quote=Anonymous]I'm in my mid 50s, and I feel like we are going to get our lives back when our youngest goes off to college. Health issues? Yes. But, I won't let that stop me. I don't have any hobbies, really. But, I plan on traveling, gardening, doing some home repairs and organizing. I love my children, and when they come back, I will be happy to have them back, but they will have their own lives to live as I will have my own life to live. My sister has been an empty nester for several years now, and she is having the time of her life. She has a lot of health issues (breast cancer included), but that doesn't stop her from having fun. And actually, not having kids at home means you can focus on your health more, which is what I'm planning on doing. Embrace your empty nest and make it what you want.[/quote]
