I'm so sad right now because I feel like I'm failing at everything....I don't feel I'm successful at work or at home...
Don't have time for any extracurricular stuff.
This is kind of why I asked the question. I think I need something that is just me, so I stop defining myself as “Mom” “Wife” and “Worker”. Because none of those are particularly affirming all the time. DH adds “runner” to his, and he gets daily celebrations of himself. My kids are kids and we are trying to give them activities. I sew and make stuff, and that feels great, but I wish I had something with other people.
Edited bc my phone decided my hubs was a “rubber” instead of a “runner”. Lol.
mommyatty Thank you heartofcheese thank you I just don't know how to make this happen.
Sadly,I'm new to the area by the time I'm truly done with my day it's 830/9p during the week. I was thinking of joining alumni chapter of sorority to meet people have a support but don't want to start things to feel like a bigger failure, but it's something Ive wanted to do for a bit.

I did that when I lived in NYC. There was no commitment and a few brunches and dinners out. Maybe because it was NYC and more diversity but everyone was doing different things so I didn’t feel worse about myself. Someone reached out to me here and I was tempted but they sound like all young 20 somethings with no kids with events in the city a 40 minute drive away, so I decided it wouldn't be a good fit now that I am more into family friendly events. But it would be great if I lived closer and wanted to get out if the house.
