Lonely in Indiana
My family travels together for my husband's job. I don't want to be separated from him for months at a time, so we rented out our house and I pack what we need and we go. We stay in one place anywhere from 2 months to 6 months. My problem is I love staying at home with my two kids (2 years and 3 years old) but I am so so so lonely! My husband works 10 to 12 hours a day 5 to 7 days a week, depending on the job. Right now I am in Union City Indiana...very small.... I am not a incredibly outgoing person until I get to know someone, but how am I going to get to know anyone??? I don't know where to go, or anything. I'd love to get my kids involved in a play group or something, but where to start?
any ideas?
thanks
Re: Lonely in Indiana
Maybe try a local MOPS or MOMS group, a church group, volunteer... organize a Nestie GTG!! Go to the library and see if there are any community groups (play groups, family groups, etc) you can join.
Even if you join these groups temporarily, it could really help your sanity getting out of the house and getting yourself and your kids a change of scenery!
Yeah, just what Sarah said... maybe going to to library to find out about community events, church events or groups.. that's what my sister does as they are in similar situtation and she always meets great people. Do you like crafts? Perhaps going to a craft store to see if they have any groups. Or meet up.com I have heard good things about... do you like politics? There is lots going on even in small communities that you could volunteer and take the kids.
GL!
