Getting Healthy and Fit ~ Let’s Do This!

Getting healthy and fit is a wonderful goal for anyone but for those in an empty nest it is a little harder. Our lifestyles have changed and sometimes we didn’t adjust our lives to compensate for it. We are still cooking enough for a family instead of a couple and we are not running around shuffling our children from place to place every day. In my case, it seems that I am eating more and moving less and my waistline has really suffered. [Read more…]

Father’s Day in an Empty Nest

Father’s Day in an Empty Nest

Father’s Day is so different when you have an empty nest. A lot of the time the children are just not able to be home for special days like this.

How to Rekindle Romance in Your Empty Nest

How to Rekindle Romance in Your Empty Nest

The romance in my marriage disappeared so gradually that I didn’t even miss it. Then one day I woke up and the children were gone and I wondered where it was. It’s so easy to let your passion and romance slip by the wayside when life gets in the way. Raising children, taking care of a home, and all the other things that come with being a responsible adult seem to take precedence. Now you are left wondering how to get that romantic feeling back again. [Read more…]

Today I would like to bring up a subject that a lot of people just do not understand, Empty Nest Syndrome. I touched on this briefly in a recent post but I would like to go a little farther with this one.

Marriage and the Empty Nest

Marriage and the Empty Nest

Marriage… Without children! How long has it been since the two of you have lived alone? For some of you, it may be never. That was the case for me and my husband. Our daughter, Cindy, was from my previous marriage and we came as a package deal! So when our son, David, left home it was the first time we had ever been alone together. It took some getting used to but once we figured it out it was, and still is, amazing!
