It helped to remind myself (often) that this is what I wanted for my child.

I for one am SOOO ready for my second child to go off to college, and most of my lady friends are as well. We have been doing more and more things together as women- shows, shopping, museums, and sometimes I have to contact people (everyone is busy) and if just one friend or five that get together, it doesn't matter.

So, start thinking about all the things you have wanted to do and the plusses of having no kids around- cooking what you want, not worrying about when they get home, having your weekends to check out exhibits, etc.

There are lots of things to do- volunteer, take a class, take walks...filling the time can do wonders
