I needed to be the first in line, in the fastest lane, the girl who knew the most about sports, the woman who could shut down any debate.

What Do You Want Your Corner of the World to Look Like? – by Kelli M. Wheeler
“It began because of my anxiety about becoming an Empty Nester. I was being designated for reassignment because my oldest had just returned to college and my youngest was about to be installed in her dorm room. I was going to miss the rewarding job of actively raising kids.
