Hi again. Well, I did talk to my husband. I just asked him to say goodnight before he goes to bed and give me a kiss. He did that tonight.

It gets lonely sometimes. You know, people think because you're married, you don't get lonely. My husband is a loner. He's quiet and doesn't talk much. He's nice enough, but..

Anyway, the family that doesn't respond is my in-laws. I'm rather attached to two sisters-in-law, who are usually too busy for me. I'd like to have friends.

But I talked to my mother today on the phone. That cheered me up.

My only friend is my mother. And that's nice, but it would be nice to have a friend who doesn't "have" to be my friend (like mom).
