Oh hell, I always thought that once DS was packed to university, I would rent the house, go travelling, find a more enjoyable job elsewhere and enjoy my new life.

Sigh, I am here now. I love my child dearly but I am somewhat enjoying not worrying so much about him. My current child friendly safe but repetitive job doesn’t make sense anymore, my house is too big, I have an active social life, a boyfriend who is nice (very nice indeed but I think we are not doing that well), a dog and a hobby, yet I feel as if I wanted to up sticks and move… if I only knew where to.

Any of you in the same boat? If so, what are you doing to reconstruct your life or start a new one?
