thing is I'm lonely....I'm home all day alone with two kids...don't get many calls and don't call many people cause they're at work...neighbors houses are not within earshot and they tend to stay inside anyway...at night I look forward to h comming home...an adult to spend some time with...some interaction...h sometimes gives it...but sometimes hides in his own world...before all this I would comment...I would seek him out...now I just leave him alone...heck when he falls asleep on the couch now I just leave him there.

oh gosh, i could have written these words. altho i have three kids (two in school) one is still home and sometimes i have felt so trapped. and couple that with the fact that for almost 11 months we were operating with just one car and i felt like a caged animal.

i have in the last three weeks called some friends and have had lunch with them. lunch, just once a week. 5 dollars at a buffett - these friends don't have children, but they HAD them and know what it's like so they don't mind me bringing my little one along.

ll, i think you really need some adult stimulation besides your husband.

do you know what feels good? being able to talk about something DIFFERENT about my day instead of the same old, well, i did the laundry, i washed the dishes, i made the beds, i mopped the floor. i can now talk about INTERESTING things. HA!!!

is there a chance you can get out more? forgive me if this has been brought up before, i am relatively new, and altho i have read your sitch since i started here, i still don't know your whole story

peace, kitti
