Hello, after reading your posts I truly hope one of you will have some guiding words because for the first time in my life I truly feel lost. I moved to Alabama with my husband and youngest daughter about 4 years ago. My husband retired from the military and came home. My father was a "lifer" 22 years in the military. This is the first time I have ever lived in the South or anywhere not affiliated with the military. Our youngest left last year for college. Although I work I feel so disconnected here. Everyone I meet seems to have been born and raised here with families of their own, and although everyone is friendly I have yet to find a niche for me.
Sorry, I am a little ashamed to be whining. I have raised 3 kids, moved all over the world, been working since I was 16, am married to my best friend,these should be the happiest days yet I feel lost. I feel no connection with my new home. I try to keep in touch with old friends but that is difficult. They too are busy with life. While I feel I have no life. I always have something to do...just busy work.
Any words of advice would be greatly appreciated. Harsh or kind as long as they are honest. Thanks
