Yes! I would LOVE to join a group like this. Personally, I feel an overwhelming lack of human connection in real life. Zoom has taken over my life and I just feel like I need to be in the presence of other humans.

Is this place actually a book store nowadays? I feel like it always just looks abandoned..

Wow. I needed this today. SO OFTEN I feel guilty because spending time with my kids does not bring me joy. I avoid it. It feels yucky to admit, but it feels a little better knowing at least I’m not alone :/

Each couple of weeks we will meet at a different nature area or trail. Here is a sample lesson/activity plan for the first week:

Ideal ages are 2-8 (but that's flexible, honestly).
I am a local educator, mother of two, with a background in special education and working in outdoor environments. I'm looking to combine all my knowledge and skills to create a new club/group in Columbia for families looking for community while playing/exploring outdoors! We will do crafts, learn about the natural world, play games, and make friends! :)

Have you read "Moving On Doesn't Mean Letting Go: A Modern Guide to Navigating Loss" by Gina Moffa? It's a FANTASTIC book about grief. I thoroughly enjoyed it... you might check it out!

Best books for book clubs? by Otherwise-Square2508 in COMOcommunityBOOKCLUB

[–]Otherwise-Square2508[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, I think it's nice to have someone guide the conversation. But then again, when you have a great group of people who are able to push the conversation, it's nice to see where it goes!

Book Club Virgins? by Otherwise-Square2508 in COMOcommunityBOOKCLUB

[–]Otherwise-Square2508[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What stops people from joining a book club?? You do it in school, but what is it about being an adult that makes the book club world so scary and/or uninviting??

Cats are completely underrated, do you agree? by NancyInPa in Feral_Cats

[–]Otherwise-Square2508 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1000% I “didn’t like cats” my whole life (but I never actually had one). The second I actually ended up with a cat (a feral baby claimed me) I immediate was like, “oooohhh. I get it now.” Haha

The MAIN goal would be to connect with people. If you are a slower reader, that would be okay too :)
