"Welcome to WiseWomenUnite.com -- When adult children marry and leave home, life can sometimes get more complex instead of simpler.  Being a mother-in-law or daughter-in-law can be tough.  How do we extend love and support to our mothers-in-law, adult children, daughters-in-law, sons-in-law, and grandchildren without interfering?  What do we do when there are communication problems?  How can we ask for help when we need it without being a burden?  And how do our family members feel about these issues?  We invite you to join our free forum, read some posts... and when you're ready...share your challenges and wisdom."

Whew! That's a relief!

I used to do a lot of backpacking when I was in my 50s and 60s. Did canoeing in the Boundary Waters of Minnesota in my 70s. Dog walks in my 80s! I wonder if going to the mail box will be "it" in my 90s? LOL!

We were talking about barbecue or dishes from around the world instead of turkey next year for Christmas.  I love the idea of getting away but we have 6 cats and 2 dogs and raccoons and birds and other critters that come up and eat.  So I think next year we will plan day trips to places thru the holiday time.  We can't leave for long but a day would be ok.  :D

I have a friend who house/pet sits. You might find someone to do that. It can be good to really get away for a few days. I did that this month for the first time in over a decade and it was wonderful! :D
