I sold everything and became a truck driver. Instead of buying an RV, I let somebody else do it for me and I headed out to see the U.S.A.

RV across the country!

Im going through that right now. My kids moved out, but I had my grand daughter everyday for 10 years, except holidays, parents devorced. Dad and mom have joint, but I still had her all the time. Now She spends most of her time with my sons g/friends mother, even calls her grandma. It's the hardest thing Ive ever had to do. Watch that beautiful girl leave, I do think my heart is broken.I can't get over why my son would let this happen. He says he didn't. It's just the way it is because the g/friend doesn't work and watches her. I'll get by this, just like everything else, but I won't be the same, ever.I know she's older now, but she still isn't with kids her own age, she's with grandma and babies. Oh well, I love her regardless of "grandma"!

My parents put a pool in the backyard, built a sunroom, finished the basement, and got a golden retriever! Luckily, I only live an hour away, so I can enjoy it all! :)

I am Going to;)WWWOOOOOOOOOOO HHHOOOOOOOOOOO;)!!

Have a party!

It's been nice (since the early 1990's). We can walk around naked and since I retired, sleep late, do what we want when we want. We do take care of grandkids which sometimes slows us (actually speeds us up) down.

I will sleep a lot more and clean a lot less!

when and if i had kids, i would do all of the things that i had wanted to do.

Cry

Sass-shay around my house in high heels and my frilliest lingerie or my birthday suit. Of course I have a long time to go yet. The youngest is only seven!

miss them but with all the free time I have I would go and treat my self because I have no longer the strees of raisen them and worrieng so much if they know what there doing, ... I WOULD GO TO DISNEY WORLD and have FUN something I havent done in a wile TRAVEL SEE PLACES go check on them once in a while but worry more about me know go to a spa and feel nice of myself work out more often spend money on things I could not spend because I was helping them ... I would enjoy my self and think of me for a wile not forever but still being a responsable parent

get a life...

My five children have done this. I'm a grandmother to eight now! :) Being a mother and grandmother are still wonderful. For myself, I am doing some of the creative things that I've always longed to do. I am writing a book. I think it's going to be great, as does my publisher. It's a lot more work than I thought it would be. I'm taking a class to learn to paint with watercolors. I live in the valley of a mountainous area with oceans within an hour's drive. It's a lovely place to do landscapes! I'm traveling with my husband. We have been to several countries now and looking forward to more. I'm able to spend more time with my husband. We did go through his having had prostate cancer and a radical prostatectomy and my having to have a breast biopsy this last year. He's recovering well, and I was one of the lucky ones with a good outcome on my biopsy. (It turned out to be scar tissue most likely a result of abuse from my ex-husband.) We do have our older grandchildren come and visit us for a week or two in the summers now. We have a lot of fun with that. Having one of the grandkids run up to me with their arms wide open, expecting a big hug, and saying, "Grandma," is almost as wonderful the first time they do this as it was the first time each of my children said, "I love you," to me. I'm enjoying life in general!

My sons were so far apart (16 years) that one year after my second one was born, the first one joined the military. Then he married and had three sons who I babysat and homeschooled. When they grew up, the youngest son had a baby, and I now babysit and homeschool him, plus one of my adult grandsons now lives with me. I'm hoping he will be ready to have a family soon and I will have a great-grand child to babysit and homeschool.

WOO HOO! DING-DONG, THE WITCH IS DEAD! Pack up and leave nothing behind by tire tracks and a Century 21 sign, with no forwarding address! Get a perpetual restraining order and establish a 100 foot marked boundary around the property! Mai-tai's in Wakiki! Enjoy a clean house! Ahhhhhhhhh, bliss!

Besides maybe some routine maintenance ensuring they are doing well it would be time to look out for myself. I have a lot of catching up to do in that area.

TRAVEL THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!!

Make love in peace.

Travel more and yea, make love without being quiet.... but wont be running around naked thats for sure, the cats might get ill :)

Celebrate. 2 down, one to go!!!!

Im going through that at the moment, my 17year old is leaving in September to join the Merchant Navy, and im DEVASTATED!!! lol, he will have a great life and will be well looked after, but im going to be so sad to see him go (im really pleased for him secretly!) but it will be a while before my other two leave as they are only 4 and 5, hubby and i have decided when they go we are going to travel the world and have the time of our lives!! :)

NEVER wake up before 10:00 AM!

celebrate?

It will be all about me and enjoying what's left of my life. That's not to say I wouldn't be available to help my children in times of need or that they'll never see me again. There's a lot I want to do and see.

Exactly what I am doing now,,,,, par-tee!!!

GRANDCHILDREN ARE WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Begin a NEW chapter in my life doing things that I have put off for a LONG time in deference to raising them!
