[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are in the same position but sometimes you have to make your village. next time fly a grandparent in to help, hire someone to manage the kids, or have DH cancel his trip. Make friends, treat them well and ask for help when you need it.[/quote] +1. Yes, your DH should have canceled his work trip. A friend can only do so much. I’m in the same boat. I have no village either and my family is in Asia. DH has no family members. I find that working full time plus taking care of two kids leave me with little time to develop that kind of close friendships. We are constantly stressed and busy.[/quote]
