Somewhere In Time

2/13/2008 - The Beginning

I decided to start this blog because finally after more then 30 years I have found happiness.  It wasn't easy to get to this point.  It took a lot of searching.  Soul searching, trying to figure out what I wanted in life, what was missing and finally who I wanted to share my new life with.  It took a long time to get to this point.  I have learned a lot along the way.  I experienced extreme lonliness even though my significant other was in the same room.  I raised my children alone, even though I had a husband during that time.  I went to holiday gatherings alone, parties...alone, sports my children participated....alone.  So much being alone and back then I wondered why my marrage wasn't working.  Duh...I was alone.  No one should be alone. 

But back then that's the way I thought it should be.  I was in charge of the children and the household. 
I did the food shopping, cleaning, laundry, etc.  He went off to work and took care of the outside chores.    How wrong I was.  I learned in my new life with my husband, we share everything, housework, outside chores, food shopping, raising kids.  Well, our kids are grown now, but we consult each other if a problem occurs.  And though we don't always agree on things or the way they should be done, we listen to each other and learn there are two sides of everything.

Posted by Fightingfemale
I'm always excited to read new blogs (other than those that trying to sell me real estate, etc.) but yours particularly hit home with me. My husband works 6 full days a week and does not take vacation time. On Sundays, he tries to cram two days of chores into one. I lived alone from 18-27. I wasn't lonely then because there was no one else there, so I wasn't expecting companionship. I've never been lonlier than I am on Sundays. Hope you keep writing.
