Just a thought about keeping in touch...

It is widely known how awful I am about keeping in touch. It might be my extreme introversion or my tendency to pack more into my day than I can usually accomplish. Or maybe it is just a skill I never learned and need to practice. Regardless, it breaks my heart to be so disconnected from the people I love the most. If we were close, I could stop by and catch up while helping you around the house or playing with your kid(s). All of the mundane interactions add up to knowing each other and what is going on with each others lives. From afar, every visit is more of an event and less of a true picture of our daily lives. Boo hoo. I want the boring, everyday, monotony. So, first I will share some of mine and hope others join in...
