Im 39 and I feel like when I was growing up we were always at somebody’s house for family dinners, cookouts, neighbors parties, random holiday get-togethers. Now getting a few people together somehow takes three weeks and a group chat.

And going out is so expensive now! Sometimes I just want everyone to meet back at somebody’s house, eat something simple and kick back on the couch. But even that feels harder to make happen.

Is it like this for you too? What changed? COVID? The cost of everything? Everyone being exhausted?
