Empty Nesting
Today when I got out of bed I noticed that the house was overly quiet. The only noise I heard were a cat snoring, and the annoying hum of the air conditioner. For the past several months, I have always had company that I have grown accustomed to. Although I haven't minded it one bit, it is kind of nice to be all alone today. I am reminded of how solitary I can be at times. Sofakitty left for NC as a full graduate ready to enter the teaching field. (We are all so proud of her.) The Frenchman and Scientist went back to Reno with a van full of new belongings. I am spending the day cleaning my suddenly very messy house and finishing my class that I am writing. Doesn't that sound truly boring. Oh and my toothache is ever present and persistant. I can't wait to get all 4 pulled on Friday.:)

Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that you are in such constant pain! I hope that you get fixed right up soon!
And, ain't it nice to have peace and quiet? Company that long, while nice friends, can be overwhelming. Especially for kids like you and me. I don't know how you did it without going crazy.
Thanks for putting up with us!
And thanks for putting up with me for 4 months! I hope it goes as smoothly when you make it to RDU.
