True clichés & threshold moments (opens the original)
Read excerpt
“The days are long but the years are short.”“Enjoy every minute; it goes by so fast!”Pretty sure I wanted to hit people who said these things to me 16 years ago (and 12, and 10, and 8…) Back then, I thought an empty nest sounded GREAT: peaceful, exciting, full of unimaginable liberties and possibility. I loved my kids, but I missed freedom, focus, and bodily autonomy, and I was definitely not going to be one of those women who sat around crying after her children launched, feeling as though she’
