Baby steps. You're doing great! Very proud of you Tad. I know how intimidating it can be to step out of our comfort zones ... Have you checked out any MeetUps in your area?
Also, I'm really glad your son isn't moving away.
Thinking you could maybe start small by hosting one of your sons for dinner at your place? Something you said in an earlier post about them having their own lives really resonated with me .... my son and his gf are living together next door to me, but I don't see them that much because I've intentionally been keeping distance to give them privacy. Turns out, I've inadvertently made them feel like I didn't want to spend time with them, lol. They kinda want Mom around a bit more than I realized. Just sayin, you may find that's true with your boys also. Start small - maybe meet for lunch or coffee? Would it be a stretch to eventually have that turn into a potluck family dinner once a month ??
Just some thoughts on a sunny Thursday xoxo
