Happy Friday!! Another dreary day here in SE WI. I only have one kid this a.m. I'll pick up Katie from the IL's around 10. Then to the grocery store. Home for lunch and then pack Katie up for a slumber party. Drop her off around 3. My mom will let me know what time they are getting Molly. DH and I will meet my parents to drop her off and then we are going out to dinner!! Gasp! All by ourselves!! We are going to try a new mexican restaurant in town. Then home to bed, because dh has to work again tomorrow. Oh well, it will be sooooooo nice to be out by ourselves.

Hope everyone has a great day!!

A big thank you to each of you! I appreciate the support. I just want to make sure that I'm in the right place with the right people. I'm trying to get ahold of my landlord to get his permission to get a cat. I need a companion!!! He said pets were okay, with an added deposit, but I want it in writing that I can get a cat now. I have one in mind, so I hope it doesn't get adopted too quickly from the shelter. Although, if it does, I guess it wasn't meant to be. The one I really, really wanted is already gone - today, actually. hehe. But it led me to a beautiful little girl named Maxine who might be a more perfect fit. I hope he gets back to me soon - I want to go pick her up today! (I only have an hour left before it's "do today" or "do tomorrow".) I told my mom about getting a cat and she gave me the lecture: "But you already have so much responsibility that you say you can't keep up with." "You don't need companionship, you have the kids." uh, whatever. I want an animal who just wants to love me and lets me love them. My kids aren't snuggle-bugs, so I don't get any cuddling. But also someone I can talk to, and will hopefully talk back in their own kitty-language. Whatever. Mom's just...*can't say it or I'll get in trouble*. She's too logical for her own good. She's an ice queen with no apparent feelings, let alone regard for anyone else's feelings. I live less than 2 miles from her, but she makes every excuse possible to not come over, but it was her stupid idea for me to move here in the first place. I'm mad. I've talked to her about it, but it's just more excuses.


I've been trying to find a church that I like that teaches what I believe, and that I can fit in with. I found one that's about 90% right, but I don't know if I want to join it. The people there are kinda snooty and nobody's even said hi to me in the 6 weeks that I've attended. We'll see. I'll try it again on Sunday and see if I can be the one to start conversations this time. They have ladies' groups and MOPS and a nursery; it would be a great support! Everything's been put on hold with all these groups until school's back in session, but that's coming soon.


Thanks again, everyone! I needed the validation and clarification, and I appreciate the support! I hope I can do the same for you.
