I have always enjoyed attending my family's yearly reunion where I can hold the newborn babies, enjoy a long chat with dear cousins and stuff my gut until it's time to carry me to my car at the end of the day. Now this year is quite different in that I would much rather remain home but I feel guilty for not making the trek out to the park to participate being that it is only once a year and there are even those who fly in especially for the event. Are family reunions very important and is it fine for me to miss one year and promise to return the following one?

Hush hush go to the reunion.
Why don't you wanna go? Can't they pick you up?
I sometimes get tired from it too. Take the train 2 hours w 3 kids and they just grab a big car for a 5 minute drive.

I'd encourage you to go and to pariticpate...... Family is important; emotions are often really BAD indicators of what we should do.... do it for the sake of others if not self.

Just MY feeling (since you asked, lol)

I have been avoiding my own topic because I did not want to admit that I am tired and it makes for an even more exhausting day out in the heat at the yearly gathering that I would like to skip for one year.
