I never thought this would happen to me. At the age of 50, I found myself with the true "empty-nest"...kids (grown and gone) and husband (mid-life crisis and GONE). No kids, no man, and no money. I was devastated!!! I cried every day for 3 months. Every afternoon at 6:00p, I would look for my husband's vehicle to pull in the driveway until I realized that he was NOT coming back. I lost 8 years of my life trying to hide the "real Mable Ann". I would dress up everyday, fix my make-up and go out into the world. People would see me and say "I heard you are by yourself" and "You don't need a man, but you look good" though they had a man. I often thought "How the h*** am I supposed to look?" Was I supposed to look BAD because something BAD had happened to me? I had an 8 year private pity party. Even my kids didnt know what I was going through. It was finally, late one night, that, while I was lying in my bed having yet another sad night alone, something inside me finally "clicked" and a light went on in my head. That is when I discovered that YOU CAN BEGIN AGAIN!! And now, to say the least, I have been diagnosed as being diabetic. And still, through it all, YOU REALLY CAN BEGIN AGAIN.
