@greengold My Mom called them "chapters" - marrying, working, raising a family, retiring and traveling with Dad, traveling with her sister after he passed, downsizing (4 times). Her final chapter was at 83, when she learned to watercolor. Unfortunately, she passed and we never got to see what her next chapter would have been. Her favorite painting is on my wall to inspire me every day.

"Chapters"...I like that! I'll borrow that
to use in future.
Great memories that you have of your Mum. Thanks for sharing.

@greengold Her advice was golden. I am writing my own chapters now. I just redid my sewing/craft/painting room and finding joy in spending my afternoons there, doing projects or just puttering.
