knit1purr2I am an extrovert. Full stop. No doubts about that.
But since having a child, especially now that he is moving on his own and hasn't quite figured out boundaries.
I have more days of being 'Touched Out' than ever before. As in before kiddo this happened never and now it is a regular occurrence.
Since this didn't happen pre-baby, my husband is learning to handle me on days that I am touched out. Sometimes this means that I just need to be alone, sometimes it means just watching a movie together on the couch. Sometimes after having the quiet times, it means that I am ready to cuddle/makeout/whatever. Other days just not happening.
This has been very different and unusual for me. I am so used to wanting to be around other people most of the time. But I guess this is just another way that kids make everything different.
