I'm very lucky. Mostly sad to be missing out on the quality time with them and some time to really relax. Work's been crazy busy.

Love the videos. TY 🙂

Mama bear or the two interlopers?

Remember you don't have to be the fastest victim, you just have to not be the slowest.

You can at least be grateful you're not me, LOL. Seriously, use what down time you have to plan something you'd really like to do with your family next time you get the chance. You don't have to act on it yet, just imagine what you'd to do most and fill in the details as you get time.

I have not had a real vacation in years, even though I'm a teacher and have a lot of time "off" in the summer.

Mother-in-law passed away last summer 10 hours away from us. My mother almost died this summer, I've been taking care of her while changing jobs and trying to move to a different state.

I'll stop there.

Agree with your view of adulting.
