And for alone time. T...Yay for the Great Outdoors! And for alone time. This is the balance I have had a really hard time with. After I was suddenly thrust into parenthood (as you were) I mourned my time alone, so was happy when my brother-in-law took the kids for a week to the beach with other friends. But I missed them, more than I would have thought possible! I missed sharing the healing power of the beach with them. It's a balance that is never stable - we are always wobbling back and forth.<br /><br />I wrote about where I get my clothes on my blog - in response to a question you posted in the comments. <br />http://diydietbuddy.blogspot.com/<br />Nan Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04610981935061412711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6095391922604035629.post-55228170037339751452014-09-27T23:48:23.714-04:002014-09-27T23:48:23.714-04:00Hi Kim.

We do it a lot as older foster parents; we just don't have the energy to both go full force all the time. Sometimes I fear we do it too much, but it seems to work ok. I guess I feel a little bad that I didn't go with them, because those are happy memories, you know? Oh well, I will be better rested for it.
