Last night I went out of town, just 30 miles, to this BIG RED BARN in the middle of hay fields for a 3rd of July celebration. A place where families can go, where single people can go to be a part of a bigger family, and listen to wonderful music...dance...people watch (always a favorite) and enjoy the fireworks.
Didn't cost much, $2/car load. There were food vendors, but I had already eaten.
Old people, young people, ice cream, licorice, popcorn, fried bread. Big ole green lawn.
It was beautiful; and while I did enjoy the company of some friends, as I sit today, I think - where's my family? Why aren't we planning something to do family-wise? Beautiful weather and I could be elsewhere. I even have today off from work.
Sadness....
Hoping, yes, that to have a fella in my life, something fun can be planned. A family camping trip - with my mom in tow!
Celebrations ought to include family.
