DH and I dreaded nothing more than when DD left for college (2006). She is our one and only (if you don't count the dog). After a couple or three months of feeling sorry for ourselves, DH and I realized that we have a great time with one another and really enjoy spending time together. We've spent time at the driving range, seen movies, attended beer tastings, gone on trips, etc. We realized if DD was perfectly happy (which she is), we should be, too. As much as we love DD, and as much as we love spending time with her, we also have a great time without her. We have embraced the empty nest. We're out there and we're loving it!
