We were doing our own things, then coming together to eat lunch and dinner and to play games or watch a movie or just hang out together. It was actually pretty nice.
That has slowly eroded over the last few weeks went on, and we are watching our own shows on different TVs, going for walks at separate times, talking on the phone with our friends in our closets, even eating at different times.

I'd hardly see my teenager throughout the day, if I didn't go into her room to pester her.
We are in the same house but not engaged with one another.
I finished my short story then finished the first round of edits. I had nothing to work on--rather nothing I wanted to work on.
I am trying to get involved with another story needing revision but I am on autopilot, my heart isn't in it.
I feel useless, what is there to do?
Who needs me?
We need a change.
I need to get my family re-engaged; watch a common show, have movie nights again, play some different games, bake chocolate chip cookies together.
