GypsyNester-Celebrating Life After Kids Childless Robert is marrying into an empty nest! Is this a good idea? What do you think? Do you have any tips to pass along?

Source: gypsynester.blogspot.com
We got some great news the other day. One of our best friends, Robert, is getting married soon. On the phone, once he announced his intentions, he gushed about the love of his life. We talked about the big changes to come.

Donna, that would be hard. Would "true love" outweigh that? How long does it take to know you are not going to win the adult kids over? This is a really tough subject, you know?

GypsyNester-Celebrating Life After Kids We were sent an e-mail from a reader that was really heartbreaking. Her son was unable to return to college because of finances. He's 20 and plays video games all day. I hope my advice helped her. Do you agree with me? Can video games be addictive?

GypsyNester-Celebrating Life After Kids Saturday Funnies! All a guy needed was a hot car, right? Remember the muscle car? All that sexy metal? Was your first car cherry or a clunker?

Clunker, My first car was a hand me down VW square back. It would just stop running while driving on the beltway and I would have to glide to the shoulder and sit until it was damn good and ready to go again! sometimes that took hours. This was before cell phones so I could only sit and do nothing but stress and be pissed!

GypsyNester-Celebrating Life After Kids Veronica finds that the real gut-wrenching laughter in her life comes when she is with her daughters, 24 & 22. This laughter led to two real-live spit-takes in a 24 hour period (in public, no less!). Do you have family members that make you laugh like this? Tell your story!

Have you noticed that the older we get, the less we laugh? As a mother and someone who has worked in academic settings, I find myself envious of teenaged girls who can work themselves into hiccup-inducing hysterics over the slightest thing. ...
