Had trouble again cooking last night, looking at it thinking "this is really enough now" I just can't get over it, made fried potatos with 4 potatos. I told hubby while sis picked the best time in the world to move in(weekend after accident), they sure picked the worst time to move out, going from 8 to 3 in 2 days is a big shock. David slept with us again, he hates being alone. I think i will let my 4 yr old niece stay the night tonight if they come over so he has some one to be with and off my butt for a night. sis-in-law is saying they want to take David for a night and get him out of the house, but i'm not sure i can let him go, it would probably be good for hubby and me to have a night alone but....  T.v. in living room quit working, only had it little over mo. so have to return it, but it sure puts a damper on having all the kids over.   Guesss i need to go start the day. luv and hugs to all and a good day.

It will take some time to get use to cooking for only 3. Sorry to hear about the TV, your right the timing is not so good. Might be time to get out some games. Who knows it could be fun. Love and Hugs.

I still cook for my huge family, that is not huge anymore. We eat leftovers for days! I agree with Tracy, sometimes unplugging the TV leads to some really great family time. Sorry your broke though. Our family was very big into games. Love ya honey, Barbara

It\'s hard. We have a big SUV that we don\'t drive much now because of gas but we needed it when we had all 6 of us going somewhere. Now with 5 we fit in my car. It\'s difficult because everything changes, the dinner, the laundry, even the activities you try to do. I say make the dinner anyway until you can handle cooking less. Someone is bound to eat an extra helping or some leftovers once in a while. Give yourself some time, lots of time if you need. Love Robin
