Your 21-day Family Caregiver's Challenge: Thrive into 2025!πŸŽ‰Day 19: Make Time For Friends!πŸ“žπŸ’—πŸ«‚

πŸ“žπŸ’—πŸ€Day 19:Take/make time to connect with family and friends, especially your peers!

There is life in association, and the isolation (self-imposed or otherwise), from the lockdowns of COVID-19, really caused many of us to feel isolated and alone, still 5 years later!😒 (yesssss it is still here!)😒

Think of a flock of sheepπŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘!

Have you ever seen sheep alone? If so, it is LOST- What does it do to signal its distress? It bleats.........LOUDLY!!!

What is YOUR distress signal?

⚠️😩😩😩😩😩⚠️

Arrange for a friend's night out! Zoom- Facetime! A simple telephone call (remember those? LOLπŸ“žπŸ“ž)

If a friend or relative, or even a trusted paid caregiver can arrange to come and spend just a few hours with your loved one, then arrange with YOUR peers for a "time-out together"- talk , reminisce, "get your groove back!

The association with peers who know and understand you can be such a refresher!πŸ’πŸ«‚πŸ«‚

Schedule the time, do not wait for a "chance encounter"!
