My husband and I both work at home. We have four children, so the times when I am 36 in the house are few. Like many work-at-home moms, when I do get a 37 to be by myself, I fill that time with more 38 , whether it’s related to my career or taking care of the housework . Most of the time, I don’t mind. 39 , I wanted this job as wife and mother, and I knew from the start that it often 40 putting others’ needs before my own. But, other times, I can’t help but feel a little 41 because I seldom had any plans for myself, and everyone knew it. My life 42 on my family, but they seldom appreciated this, which often 　43 me a lot.

Was I being ridiculous(荒唐可笑) by seeing a movie 　46 so much work waited for me at home? I 47 myself to swallow these 　48 and bought myself a ticket. And then I walked into the theater with my 49 held high and enjoyed every minute of the movie. I laughed and felt my good spirits 50 for a couple of hours, I was 　51 wife or mother. I was just myself.

From that point on, I 52 that Fridays would be mine, 　53 for a couple of hours. Some Fridays, I head to(前往) the beach with a good book. Other Fridays, I go shopping, 54 up a little fast food or some clothes just for myself. I really 55 my Fridays after a long week of caring of my family.

Several years ago, while attending a communication course, I experienced a most unusual process. The instructor asked us to list 　36 in our past that we felt 　 37　 of, regretted, or incomplete about and read our lists aloud.

This seemed like a very 38 process, but there’re always some 39 souls in the crowd who will volunteer. The instructor then 40 that we find ways to 41 people, or take some actions to right any wrong doings. I was seriously wondering how this could ever 42 my communication.

Then the man next to me raised his hand and volunteered this story: “Making my 43 , I remembered an incident from high school. I grew up in a small town. There was a Sheriff 44 of us kids liked. One night, my two buddies and I decided to play a 45 on him.

After drinking a few beers, we climbed the tall water tank in the middle of the town, and wrote on the tank in bright red paint: Sheriff Brown is a s. o. b. (畜生). The next day, almost the whole town saw our glorious 46 . Within two hours, Sheriff Brown had us in his office. My friends told the truth but I lied. No one 47 found out. ”

Nearly 20 years later, Sheriff Brown’s name 48 on my list. I didn’t even know if he was still 49 . Last weekend, I dialed the information in my hometown and found there was a Roger Brown still listed. I tried his number. After a few 50 , I heard, “Hello? ” I said, “Sheriff Brown? ” Paused. “Yes. ”“Well, this is Jimmy Calkins. ”

“And I want you to know that I did it. ”Paused. “I knew it! ” he yelled back. We had a good laugh and a 51 discussion. His closing words were，“Jimmy, I always felt bad for you 52 your buddies got it off their chest, but you were carrying it 53 all these years. I want to thank you for calling me. . . for your sake. ”

Jimmy inspired me to 54 all 101 items on my list within two years, and I always remember what I learned from the course: It’s never too late to 55 the past wrongdoings.
