Of course, I've known this for a while now, but every so often, it really hits me. I just took a FB quiz on what kind of old person I'll be....and realized I was getting sad because I'm not sure I'll ever have grandchildren, or be still young and aware enough to realize that I do have them. What a bummer. IF really sucks.
Okay, back to cleaning my house in my cold-medicine-induced stupor.
Carry on.
Re: Realization: IF = no grandchildren...for me.
I have also thought of this too. And I also got sad when I think that when I get old, I might not have any chidlren to visit and spend time and holidays with, take on vacation, etc etc. My dad is retired and he and his wife are always travelling to see my sisters and I and the grandkids (my niece and nephew). I am praying I will be able to do that too someday.....
Meepit- don't get ahead of yourself, you do not know what the future holds. There are some places where you just shouldn't go.
