This evening I was looking through a friend's pictures on facebook. A few of the pictures were of her, her family and friends spending the evening together. Relaxing. Hanging out. Eating pasta.
It makes me miss home. Makes me miss my family. Makes me miss my friends.
I know I have said this before but I want to have friends over here. Don't get me wrong, I have a friend or two. But I want the friends that will knock on the door with a movie and popcorn. Friends that will stop by just to say "hi" rather then calling. Friends that want to come over for dinner, even if its just spaghetti.
I know we have been here for, what is it now, 4 years. And I know I haven't really gone out of my way to meet people. I don't even really know our neighbours, even the one who brought me EmergenC yesterday because I was sick. I don't even really know any parents of the boys Jake has coached for the past 4 years with one exception. I need to step out of my comfort zone and meet people. But to be honest...I don't know how to.
So anyway. Who wants to come over and have a pasta dinner with me? Even if its just spaghetti?

I do! I do!! I LOVE spaghetti! :)
Also, MeetUp.com is a great site. I have met mamy a mommy-friend there and they have lots of groups to choose from. I'm hoping to join a crafty type group this spring! Fun!
I would eat spaghetti with you any day!! I hope you feel better soon, all my fingers are crossed for you this month. I think of you often. Muah!
Boy do I hear you. I was just feeling freaking lonely myself the last couple days. Georgia stinks. Good luck meeting some people. I hope it gets better. Virtual spagetti dinner anyone?
Virtual spaghetti dinner Maggie... I love it. I'm in! ;)
