Facebook is like high school all over again...

I have a facebook friend (old friend from elementary school) who gets at least 10 comments on anything she posts. Her kid was going to his first soccer game and this got a score of likes and several "That's so cool!!!!!!!". Seriously? Normally I just ignore it, whatever. Now I'm actually asking my real friends if anyone want to join me in a sewing class one night, and I'm getting crickets. I thought a few people might be interested....
The kicker is that I won this class in a contest the sewing shop was holding (this is a hip, young mama sewing space, no blue hairs). I won a class for me and a friend. Woo hoo! My husband suggested I ask without mentioning the free part to see who is really interested in the class. Apparently no one is. Whoosh I'm back in high school, fidgeting with my gym uniform as everyone else in the class gets picked before me for volleyball teams. Our yoga moms playgroup has about 8 of us in it. A lot of people get together outside of the group. I rarely get invited to these offshoot get togethers. I've always has a tough time making friends, I don't get it.

I wonder if I should mention the free part. Then maybe I'd get some friends who want to do something with me.


Oh yeah, I was COOL in high school. This is my tap/jazz dance group.

A good day

I've had way too many rotten days lately. Lots of marital muck, sick baby (just a cold, but still hellish), the depression was back big time. I didn't post anything, because I couldn't put it all down. It upset me too much to see it in print. I went out with a friend last week and we had a great day. I knew her from work, but we never really chatted before (she worked at the other store across the street). We had a great breakfast, went for a stroll and hung out in the shade with the babies. I need more of that please.

Happy baby, happy mom.
