One of my Secrets of Adulthood is: Just because something is fun for someone else doesn鈥檛 mean it鈥檚 fun for you, and vice versa. If the time with your relatives is meant to be fun, make sure you鈥檙e spending at least some time doing something that鈥檚 fun for you. Working in the kitchen, playing touch football, sitting around talking, running errands, watching the parade on TV 鈥 these things may or may not be fun for you, no matter how the rest of the family feels.
