Back to Square 2

I'd say we were back to square 1, but really, we've been here too long for that. We were all sitting home the other afternoon, and I realized that we're back to square 2 as far as community or connections are concerned. We aren't completely alone, but yet aren't completely connected either. We've managed to make a few acquaintances, but the few budding friends, the ones we did things with, have moved on. Some to different states, some to different towns, and some to different schedules. It really is hard to be alone all the time. We are happy together, doing things and getting out. But essentially, we are alone as a family. Our weeks and weekends focus on us, which can be both good and bad. I miss being able to talk to a friend - to have real conversations. That will all come in time. But for now we will sit on square two, until God finds it in his will to move us down this boardgame.
