[quote=Anonymous]OP, it sounds to me like you have many activities, but long for time with family. It also sounds like you don't have many friends, perhaps because you spent so much of your time focused on family. So, if I were you, I'd reach out and try to connect with some of the people you know as acquaintances through your shared activities. That's how you make friends. And, if you want to spend more time with family, I would stop dreaming about what you'd expected in the way of continued intergenerational events -- possibly centered on you and your husband as matriarch and patriarch. Instead, why not visit your kids, siblings, nieces and nephews? Heck, get an RV and drive a circuit of family visits. But, really, don't dwell on what might have been. That's a sure recipe for misery. [/quote]
