Social Distancing WAS My Dream
First off, I want to give everyone my love and sympathy. There are many of you that strive on community and being social. I feel for all of you in this weird world we're living in right now.
I actually didn't mind the idea of being more antisocial, whoops, I mean social distancing, haha. I'm used to being alone for the greater part of my waking hours. My wife is gone for 8 to 10 hours through the week and some Saturdays. My kiddos come every other weekend. I have a routine. I had a routine. Now my wife is working from home, and my munchkins are now here 3 days a week for e-learning and every other weekend. Please don't get me wrong. I love and adore my family, but my routine has been hit by a hurricane.
I'm used to being able to listen to my music, do all my art and read with no interruptions. Now, the second I put my pencil to paper, my brush to canvas, my headphones on, or open a book I'm being interrupted. Until now, I hadn't realized how vital my routine was.
Is anyone else having the same issues, or am I overreacting? I truly love my family, and love that I get more time with them. There's just no time for me to decompress.
Thanks for any comments in advance. I wish you all a safe and blessed day!
Lol π itβs not really much change to my routine, donβt really see many people anyway I am lucky as live in the country so kids can get out. Be grateful they are not scrapping ππ try having 3 teenagers to wind each other up lol ππ It is a totally different situation than normal maybe try and get some quiet time after schoolwork has been done and watch some movies together ? Netflix is a godsend lol
Thanks for commenting! We live out in the middle of the woods in the country too! I get them outside a lot. We don't watch much television, maybe I could get them to watch a movie long enough to get some art done. Lol
