Learning



I am working on learning to live again. Not only am I learning to eat a whole different way, I am learning to live alone.
When I get moved, it will be the first time in my 51 years to ever live alone.
I went straight from my parents to a marriage at 17 and 2 children by the age of 20.
A second marriage and 2 more children by the age of 26. Then on to live with my children and a 3rd marriage at age 42.
When Wayne passed I came to live with my son and his family. Now I feel it's time to learn to live on my own.
Yes, it's a bit scary sometimes, but I think it is what I must do to learn to live again.
Financially, I am a mess. Mentally too, in some ways. Physically, I am hoping for much improvement since I had the gastric bypass.
I am planning on searching for a way to earn a little more income, perhaps by going back to school and finishing a degree that I started over 20 years ago. Possibly something completely different. I guess my world is open for anything these days.

If anyone has any ideas or suggestions for me, please leave a comment on here. I would love to hear from you and hear any cool things you have to say. Who knows, you may have a great idea that will make me a self made millionaire!!
Seriously tho, I don't need or even want millions. I just want to learn to live again, on my own and be able to take care of myself until I really am too old to do so. Lets face it, at 51, I don't have a whole lot of years left to waste!
