Okay, so I been feeling not so happy lately. I thought I would be happierth 2 kids, rather than 1, but I am finding I am really lonely. I am so busy with working, then playing with the kids, and cleaning the house. I am just exhausted by the end of the day, and hven't made time to do much for me or with friends. I am finding I am resentful of my kids. OK, I wrote it. Just writing that has made me feel better, and made me realize how much I need to schedule time for me and a friend, or just to have a date with DH.
Sorry this is so depressing! I know things will get better,and it is my power to make myself feel better. Thanks for listening.
Re: FFFC lonely
I think we're all guilty of this. I recently started going to a Mommy & Kid group at my church on Wednesday mornings. Yes, I'm one of the oldest ladies there, but I'm starting to meet a few more people and just getting out of the house is important.
Same here- super lonely! I resent just about everyone! LOL!
I joined a moms' group in my area and we do stuff with and without the kids. Plus, I have been having playdates with a friend from high school that just had a baby as well.
Thank you all for your reassurance. i know if i just schedule some "me" time I will feel better.
When MH is home, I take that time to run errands sans our LO & I totally take my time. I treat that time as "me" time. And I am trying to be better at scheduling things with my girlfriends. Right now we go to a paint your own pottery studio once a month & we have a blast. Each month the studio hosts a "Diva Night". It's BYOB, the studio provides food (sometimes from a local restaurant), there's a certified massage therapist, it's all women, & there's no one under 18. Oh yeah, and you paint a piece of pottery ;~p
We all need some "me" time. It's important to have it.
I'm so sorry you're going through this. I really hope you get some time to take care of yourself soon.
