Sanity...thank you so much for sharing your story with me . I try not to give up. I love who I am on the inside. I am caring, witty, loving, warm, calm, and several other qualities it is just the outside that gets me down. I think. I don't know why people don't connect with me. People talk to me like at 4-H, and the kids' schools but when I try to be actual friends with them they don't answer texts or keep in touch. So that is where I get confused. I kinda feel like the new kid in school. We moved to a small village population 3,000. I LOVE IT here so much, but its kind of like everyone has their friends and I am just the lonely new kid. Oh well. You know what...I would rather it be ME than my kids. My kids have so many friends. And the funny thing is ... I am the "cool mom". My daughter's friends LOVE me more than their parents . I am fun! I let them come over and have dance parties in the basement (no alcohol or sex) !! Just fun times. My daughter is 14 and all her friends text me all the time. I just got a text yesterday of one of my d's friends and she sent me a picture of her new formal dress and asked if I liked it. Her friends will text me and tell me they love me, that they miss me...and this group of 14 year old boys (including my d's boyfriend) called me one night and they all sang to me *LOUD*. They were singing "Taylor's moms got it going on"....Don't know if anyone knows the real song...I think its Jenny's mom....anyway...they love me. If we are at the fair or somewhere they will all coming running up to hug me.

OK..I'll shut up now . Thanks for listening.
