Today is the last day of the trip to Louisiana where we have to do two grocery stores in one day. Tomorrow, we only do one store and then drive home. We have Tuesday off and then small local stuff the rest of the week. I’ve been suffering from achy muscles the whole trip, but I believe that the more I do physically, the better that will get over time. When my mother was my age, she had a desk job and weighed about 60 pounds more than I do now. If I start to get tired and miserable, I just remember that.
Kevin and I went to a local Walmart Supercenter yesterday evening and got me two pairs of black pants in the next size down. He also got a new pair of work pants, and we got frozen meals for the room. The new pants were on clearance for only $9. They fit great!
My daughter is coming by Tuesday while we are off. She said she misses me. I miss her too. I think she’s getting nervous about going to college. Honestly, I’m looking forward to her going. She has spent the entire summer just hanging out with friends. She was working, but her last day was July 1. I have a lot of anxiety about her just gallivanting around with her friends, and when she goes to the dorm, it will be a more secure environment. Luckily, her friends are all good kids and so is she. I don’t have to worry about them purposely getting in trouble. But there’s still anxiety. I couldn’t wait for her to be a legal adult, but now that she is, I totally get the anxiety that empty nesters feel.
