The Last Senior

I have anticipated this year for a very long time. Devan is a Senior and will be graduating High School in May of 2016. The last child, last year of public school. I feel very blessed that my children, although very different from my schooling, didn't have to succumb to the way public education has turned. Common Core, rebuking History and teaching a skewed view. Once again, I will start my life over, as a single woman with grown children. I've had dependents to take care of for 25-26 years. I won't know what to do with myself. As far as a new home, I want to go back to my home state. Jobs aren't as prevalent as they are in Nashville, TN., but it's still home. I made it work for 23 years, I'll make it work again. I will miss my children greatly, but I cannot stay here with no family. My grown children have their own lives and my Mother is becoming older and needs help. I hope mine is welcomed.
