I should have left

I Should Have Left I should have left.Early on.You know that moment — when something inside you shifts.

What do I do now?

What Do You Do Now? Navigating the Quiet After They’ve Flown I’m sitting here on my couch, in what I guess I’d call my part-time home now, with my two dogs for company. And I’ve found myself asking this huge, echoing question: What am I supposed to do now? For so long, my life revolved around my kids. They were everything—my end-all, be-all.
