Sometimes, I think I just don't belong. I've been apart of MOMS Club since this summer. We just started new playgroups 3 weeks ago. And something just isn't clicking. I just don't feel like I belong in my group. I'm pretty sure I'm the youngest and Lilith is the oldest. One of our members hasn't been to one play date, yet. I understand they've been sick and finishing up building their house, but still. This week, we met with another group (each group has 3-4 in it) to discuss the Halloween Party that we're in charge of. Out of the 7 of us, only 4 showed up. I hosted and had all kinds of goodies out. NO ONE ate anything! And almost all of my ideas were shot down. Plus, we're having it at Whipper-Snippers, a hair-cutting place. So, we have to go pack up all their products before the party so little hands don't get a hold of them and then put everything back after the party. There are a few of us that aren't too happy with the place that was picked, but whatever.
Anyway, I wasn't too sure about paying $25 a year just to have friends (well, that's how I look at it), but I felt it was something I needed to do for myself and for Lilith. I have had no friends for quite awhile now. The nice thing is, I do have a couple now thanks to MOMS Club and also a Yahoo Group I'm in. I'm thinking of not renewing next summer. If it didn't cost, maybe I'd stick around. It's hard coming into a group of people when most of them are already friends and do things with one another all the time. Why should I pay another $25 when I don't feel included?
Ok, I really need to stop procrastinating and get things ready to head to mom's. I'm going to try to write here a lot more since OD has had so many problems and certain people are on my Myspace.
