Mom and Dad ringing in the new year a couple of years ago. ☺ |
Don't get me wrong, I love my parents...it's just that it's just a tad embarrassing to say that I'm 30 and I live with my parents!
I moved out of my parents' house shortly after graduating college several years ago, and then moved back in for a few months before I moved to Georgia a few years ago. I lived in Georgia for 2 fantastic years. When I was making my plans to move back to Michigan, I said I was going to move back in with my parents temporarily. My plan was to live with them for a couple of weeks...a month tops while I got everything going back here in Michigan. Well, that was 22 months ago! And here I am, still living here in my brother's old bedroom (it's even still decorated in his theme, with his furniture). If I could find a full time teaching job, I'd be able to afford to move out again, but until then...
I miss living on my own, and I know my parents miss their empty nest! Occasionally my mom will tell me that no one wants me to move out more than they (my parents) do, and I have to remind them that, no, no one wants me to move out more than ME! ☺
I'm only kidding...mostly. ☺
ReplyDeleteI am in a kinda similar situation, only I have 2 young ones in tow as well. There are aspects I love, and aspects I so do not love with this situation. SO I get ya, loud and clear.
