[quote=Anonymous]OP (and others who feel this way), I think one thing that can really help-- as the immediate PP mentioned-- is to find an activity (ideally a group one) where you are feeling engaged and valued, and you're having fun. I'm going to be posting this on Off-topic too, but I'll share below the information about an upcoming program (starting this Tuesday) with a local chorus that is a wonderful way to get out of the house and carve out some time for yourself, separate from work and family. I first checked out this group at this time of year (over a decade ago) for the holiday program, when I just needed to get away from my little kids and do something for ME, and now all this time later I'm still a member; it's one of the most important things that I do for myself. I've made great new friends, get to feel creative and to laugh and to contribute each week to something beautiful, and I am a different person than the mom and wife and worker that I am the rest of the week. *** Celebrate the season with the Capital Accord Chorus’s free Sing for the Holidays program which runs from November 18 to December 13 in Silver Spring. Past guests have had a lot of fun joining us to bring joy to our community. Learn a few of our favorite holiday songs and perform with us in up to three December shows if you like — no long-term commitment is required! Come sing, celebrate, and maybe find your new musical home with the Capital Accord Chorus! We welcome women and nonbinary treble-range singers (soprano, second soprano, alto) to sing four-part a cappella harmony in the barbershop style. We are especially looking for singers in the low alto range. You’re invited to: 🗓️ Rehearsals: Tuesdays, November 18, 25 and December 2, from 7:30–9 p.m. Performances: December 6, 9, and 13, followed by a chorus party! 📍 Location: Margaret Schweinhaut Senior Center, 1000 Forest Glen Road, Silver Spring, near Holy Cross Hospital and the Forest Glen metro station. Please register at https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdkKKfU_uxeVQKWJx1pZ2pfiQyH0GDagDBMimiMVoOwtBx8_Q/viewform For more information about us, check out our website www.capitalaccord.org as well as our Facebook and Instagram pages. If you can’t participate this season, you're still welcome to visit the chorus on a Tuesday night whenever it works for you; just check our website first to confirm that rehearsal is on as usual.
