feels like I am somewhat guilty of doing this after marriage and parenthood. though now I am trying something different. Away with epic, mega catch up that would end up never get planned, now we make do with short bursts of catching up while doing productive things. Phone calls or meetups, whichever works. I tag along to my friends' errands or vice versa. Long drives, waiting for school pickup, WFC, groceries, car maintenance, can all become a time and place to connect.

It's still somewhat a compromise, but we take what we can get.

Thank you so much for making the initiatives 💛 god knows how disheartening it is to make the initiative every time only to be rejected due to family or kids reasons. After the second or third tries, I think I'd stop asking. So I feel like it means a lot to your friends that you're doing this 💛
