I'm trying people - really I am. I've been to almost every church activity and just got home from another "play group". It was like I wasn't even there. No, don't try to make me feel welcome by calling me by my first name. No, don't involve me in any of your stupid conversations - especially the major one about how you eat healthy but your husband is a snacker (who couldn't name his favorite vegetable when you got married). Please, don't tell me how you taught your children the ABC song or their colors (even they're only two) because I don't want my kid to be smart. Oh, and could you practically scold me when I chase after my kid and accidentally go into your "messy room" - because that will really make me feel like staying at your house longer.
Yeah, I shouldn't be so critical. Obviously K has some mental issues (which explains why her house is pristine, but all painted gray) and A is just a label-loving snob (notice I'm keeping it PG here). But that's all who was there. And I'm just frustrated that I can't find a Mel or a Deb here in the Falls. It's not like we plan on living here long - we only purchased a house. Ugggggg.
I do have scrapbooking again tonight, which I feel a little more comfortable at. I met this random group on craigslist (as well as the book group I attend). I know the Church is true, but some of the people in it aren't (true Christians).
And when I have play group at my house (in two weeks), I'm going to do my best to make everyone feel comfortable.
(Although I'm worried that not a soul will show up since it's been the host-mom, A, and me at the last two meetings - and A already acts like she too good to be my friend. So if it's just me: well Buddy & I will have an awesome time and maybe I'll let him watch choo choos on TV while I rant to my true friends in other cities - via the internet).

I am sorry that you went through that today! No wonder you would need a drink! I hope that it will get better. Just know that you are amazing and they are missing out not knowing you!
