The Empty Next may…

  1. Ponder the age-old question: Is the nest half full or is the nest half empty (chin scratch)?

  2. Put the pro in profanity.

  3. Be a non-advice column for recovering people pleasers and aspiring narcissists.

  4. Detail my “coming of middle age” and new things I’m doing–ukulele lessons and couples therapy!

  5. Be serious. I use humor as an instrument of truth. Laughter is expected, tears are also welcome.
