Did I mention that E is going away for business this week? He is, and I am bummed. It is just he and I in this parenting thing, I do not have family or friends close by to get breaks or to visit so when he leaves, it is just me and the kids.
It is lonely.
I feel like a failure to even admit that. I am lonely, I depend too much on my husband for help and for companionship. He is it for me on a daily basis. Sure I talk to my friends and family daily and I can write here as an outlet, but it is just not the same. I am a pack animal, I need my peeps to make me happy. I rarely want to be alone. I am a person that needs people.
Does that make me strange? No, but it is not something I particularly like about myself either. I want to be stronger, more independent, like to be alone with myself more.
What is it about yourself that you would change if you could?

I'm kinda the opposite way. I like the alone times that I get. I cherish those hours at night after everyone else is in bed and I can just be alone in my thoughts.
ReplyDeleteAs for something to change, probably finding a way to be more comfortable with and talkative during social situations.
I feel your pain. My hubby has been traveling a good bit lately (and stressed out at work so crabby when he is home). It's no fun.
ReplyDeleteIf I could change anything, I'd definitely give myself some stick-to-it-ness. I start lots of cool things but finish nothing.
