Don't Like This...

I use to do the same thing when I was your age and my husband would travel. It was a horrible feeling. The house would make noises that I never heard before just sending chills down my spine. I'm probably the same way now also; but, my house is full of grown children and a semi-retired husband so I haven't had to be alone.



I think about when the kids are all gone and if my husband passes, how will I survive? My only comfort is I watched my Mother go through this too. She had a house full of kids that just came back constantly. There was always someone coming home. Eventually, she had to face being alone and she did fine. I know she felt like me, even though she never talked about it. I remember when my father would go away on business trips, she would put a chair up against the back door lol! No wonder I have problems being by myself!
