Time is going by so quickly. I saw an old post on FB (you know, when they share things you posted years ago)... my D5 and her little friend four years ago. Seems like such a short time and yet EONS. Time moved so slowly back then, and now it is speeding by.
Having ups and downs lately-- mostly ups, though, so I'm focusing on that. This weekend is meh. I feel like I'm having trouble connecting with others. I don't have plans with my family this weekend (we don't celebrate Easter), and it seems like everyone else is out of town or doing their own family thing. So I'm feeling a little adrift. I have D5 this evening and all day tomorrow and no one to hang out with. I'm a major introvert which means most of the time I'm perfectly content to hang out alone (and actually need and want lots of alone time), but find myself left on the sidelines when I actually want to socialize because I haven't put in the time to keep relationships solid. Plus, my D5 only wants to be with other kids, so even though I'd be fine to spend the time just with her, she would prefer to be around other kids. I totally get that. And I feel terrible that I don't have such a huge social life to offer her. Her dad, on the other hand, has a big circle of friends all with kids her age, and a large family with lots of cousins who spend lots of time together. They get invited away for vacations, weekends, etc.
Something to work on, I guess.
Hope you are well, SunnyB, and the rest of my DB village! Happy Easter to those who are celebrating.
