Do you ever feel like you're left out of everything and life is passing you by?
(maybe that's how it's supposed to be when you stay home with kids?)
I don't really ever do anything. And it's sad to say that all of my friends don't really live here ... actually ... most of the people who I call my friends are family ... sisters, cousins, sil's ...
No wonder I read so much. I have no friends and no social life because I stay home most of the time.
Blech.

I think life is passing me by a lot of the time, too. I just try and remember how grateful I am and will be in the future to be able to have this time with my children...all day every day. Although, today I'm not liking the idea. I would love some time away! I guess I need to read a good book tonight. :)
me too. so come and "stay home" WITH me! :)
i feel the same way honor. we pretty much have the same schedual. kids go to school, go to the gym (some days), go home...keep busy with who knows what. ive been in this area for
3 1/2 yrs. now, and i dont feel like i have really done much with the other girls in our ward. i guess it's partially my fault for not having people over more, but no one hardly invites me over either. so...i guess we'll have to start the trend and get everyone together more often.
I always wish I could have a little family of my own. I know it's hard though. Maybe it's in our nature to want what we don't have. Or at least want a change once in a while.
On Saturday afternoon we can switch for a bit. Although it's not quite the same when you're babysitting because you don't worry about anything but playing and the laundry doesn't make you feel guilty or panicked.
Someday I hope to know what this feels like, but then maybe I'll wish for the lonely single life with no one but a grumpy cat to love. :) I doubt it somehow...
but we'll see.
I guess the trick is loving each other and reaching out to other women because no matter what choices we've made or what circumstances we find ourselves in, we all feel a little trapped. Like life is passing us by. You hit the nail on the head.
I battle this constantly. Mostly because I don't want to bother anyone or get rejected.
