[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That is really sad OP. Time to learn how to entertain yourselves and be comfortable just “being.” It will be a good learning experience for you. [/quote]

+3! There’s something wrong with your life if you need external entertainment all the time.[/quote]

Another plus one for this [/quote]

You are all so rude.  OP has a two year old and she is used to being busy.  Just because she misses that does not mean there is anything wrong with her.  In fact, I find people like you to be sad.  How were you living life if you don't miss anything under COVID quarantine?  If your life isn't materially worse under COVID, your life probably wasn't that good to begin with.

I'm with you OP.  I'm used to being busy and always spending time out of the house.  My kids and I are very social and I just miss the big hangouts where the kids all played together and the parents could relax and hang out.  It's *hard* with toddlers.  Hugs to you OP, here's hoping life goes back to normal soon.[/quote]

No one said they didn’t miss things from pre Covid. But that is not what OP said. If she can’t enjoy being in her own home with her own family that she chose, that says something about her. Lots of people on this board don’t like playing with/being with their kids and it’s really sad.[/quote]

Not PP but get real!  You can love your home and the "family you choose" and still be bored and still miss your active life (that included enrichments outside the house).  There is nothing wrong with OP at all.[/quote]

“Only boring people are bored” - it’s so true! There’s soooo much to do in life. Yes, we miss our friends and our classes a lot. But we’ve found other ways to entertain ourselves - more reading, getting things done around the house, a lot more cooking since we’re all home for every meal, unstructured playing, DH and I working our way through the Star Wars and Marvel movies on Disney+ after the kids go to bed... Honestly, there’s still a lot more I could do if I had the time. [/quote]
