When I inevitably get to this point in life (several times each year), I yearn for the "good old days" when things seemed easier. I know full well that things weren't easier. Just different. I miss friends and family more because I crave their love and support. I know, it is always there when I need it and I appreciate that. But I long to be closer to those people who gave me the memories I have of the "good old days". Those memories and that feeling of comfort will help me through the changes to come. I can see from looking back how far I've come, how many changes have occurred (both welcome and unwelcome) and they support me as I move ahead.
I'm a lucky girl to have such amazing family, friends and wonderful memories.
Now, back to work...

I think this is what comes of getting older. And 15 years from now, when the kids are out of the house you'll long for THESE days. Today you're making the memories for that time. They're there even if you're not fully aware of them yet :)
Tami!! I am just reading this now. I hear you, and we all go through it. Tara R is definitely right about making memories now, too. Some day, you'll look back and wonder how you did all that you did right now.
