It was only a week ago when our #1 moved into her adorable house with her two roommates. She had to arrive early because she had to help her sorority prepare for Rush. Usually, I hear from her every day but a few days had passed and I hadn't heard from her -- I wasn't alarmed though because I knew how time consuming Rush can be. We'd been getting sporadic texts telling us how tough her week was and how being a sorority girl is not easy.
So this AM the Mister and I received this e-mail from #1. I write this verbatim.
Good day
Sorry I haven't contacted very often. They take away our phones most of the day.
Started recruitment yesterday and it's actually really fun. Tell you deets (details) soon but having a good time.
Had a terrible dream that you two were getting divorced and I was so mad I keyed your cars.
xxoo

my response:
Dear #1,
So glad you are having such a good time! So strange that you had a nightmare about Dad and me last night because I actually had a dream about you. I had a dream that you finished your degree in four years!
So I'll make you a deal, I promise that your nightmare doesn't happen if you can make my dream come true!
xxoo,
Mom

I am an empty nester meandering through my middle-aged years while entangled in the never-ending process of renovating an antique home on the South Shore of Massachusetts. I love to write about books, movies, TV, celebrities, decorating, and weekend adventures. My favorite writing material is derived from my family: the Mister, my girls, #1 and #2, and my two untrainable, rambunctious pups, Chowdah and Chili.

Hello, I'm Katie

I'm Katie. Thanks for stopping by my blog. I am an empty nester meandering through my midlife years one page at a time. We sold our antique home on the South Shore of Massachusetts in October 2020. We relocated to Dallas and have been spending our time searching for our Forever Home. I love to write about books, movies, TV, celebrities, decorating, and weekend adventures. My favorite writing material, however, is derived from my family: the Mister, my girls, #1 and #2, my favorite son-in-law, and my two untrainable, rambunctious pups, Chowdah and Chili.
