Hello World!
I was approached by my youngest daughter with the idea that I should join a Group. She was concerned that I may not be socializing as much as she felt was appropriate. Now, I've never been one to gather like some people are. Those that seem to have several friends hovering over them tend to just scratch me the wrong way. I am a social misfit. I know this about myself. I do not feel comfortable with large crowds or even family gatherings for that matter. Sometimes I say and do stupid stuff and it usually bothers me for years after. Mental garbage is my term for such foolery. Anyhow, back to the story. She suggested this www.meetup.com as a place to find friends of similiar interest. I went there. I found mommy groups and hiking groups and wine groups. There were book clubs and social clubs and dog lover clubs, cat lover clubs, internet start up clubs and a plethora of entraperneural groups. Spiritual Enlightenment was hilarous! I have to wonder what these people DO at those groups meetings? Contort their bodies into unimaginable positions and hum mantras? For me that would be a three day regime of high-dose Motrin and a heating pad. NOT MY CUP OF TEA!!! NO sewing groups or crafting groups of any sort. ( I'm not into knitting so that is definitely OUT)
I looked, that is the best I could offer her. I will stick to my sewing and my little yard. Happily dreaming of the house I may some day own with its little white picket fence, porch and gardens. It makes me happy.
