My kids are with my axh. For visitation. I have 8 days alone. I went out last night and am meeting some friends tonight. My question and feelings are of loneliness I think. I have a list of things to do while they are gone. I am beginning to feel lonely in general but now with my girls gone for 8 days...its a little magnified. I just was curious what other parents do when the kids are gone. This is newer to me.
