[quote=Anonymous]I work pt on the weekends just to stay connected to the adult world and my profession. I'm SAHM the rest of the week. It IS lonely if you set your day up to be that way. This week was terribly isolating because toddler has croup and so we couldn't leave the house. What helped was texting with my friends, mother and husband during the day. Checked in with my husband at one point to ask him if he was feeling totally stimulated at work. Also asked him how many people he talked to that day. His response: Everyone is out of the office today and I'd rather be home because I'm so bored at work. It helps to remind myself that I really do have control over how much I want to socialize vs be isolated. If I'm feeling isolated, I try to look at how I set my day up and then make changes by scheduling playdates and getting out. Good luck![/quote]
