Wow this blogging thing is harder than I ever thought. I either can't think of anything interesting or I am too busy to take a minute out to do so.
I have been enjoying the empty nest. It is nice to not have so much cleaning to do. They tried to tell me they cleaned up after themselves. I have proof now that was not the truth. I do miss their company, and so does their father. This is funny because he was the one pushing them to move and now he wants to visit all the time.
I have decided to pursue becoming a midwife. I have thought of it many times over the years. But now I have more freedom to do so. It is not easy to figure out the steps, there is no clear path. I now am just investigating, trying to come up with my plan. Finances will be a real issue. We live paycheck to paycheck, so big expenses are out of the question. I am just going to trust that if this is the Lords will for my life He will make a way.
I am going to Ohio next week to help with a wedding. It is ending up to be much more than I bargained for. But the bonus is I will get to see my grandchildren, though I may be too busy to do much with them.

These are big decisions you are looking at - may God guide you.
ReplyDeleteIt use to be you had to be an RN to be a midwife. Maybe that has changed.
May all go well for you.
I am not an empty nester yet but three of the five children are no longer living at home. I've heard they come back though. I'm not sure yet how I feel about that.
ReplyDeleteBecoming a midwife is an awesome thing. I too have given that some thought. I look forward to seeing what you decide. Have a wonderful time with the grandkids.
