blessed
Today was a long one. Fighting kids to get ready and on time for school, dentist appointment, flat tire, dance class, make dinner, help with homework....the list was long today. I did get a chance to go to a craft night with some of the ladies from my ward. I haven't ever really felt like I have any real friends here. Even though we've been in this house for 7 and a half years, I just haven't found my "niche". There are a few girls from church, and I enjoy being with them, but I tend to feel really insecure about opening up and actually stepping out of my comfort zone with anyone. Thank goodness this wonderful group of women doesn't give up and continues to invite me to things despite my lack of friendliness. Tonight I got to go to a craft night at one of their homes. There were only 6 of us there, everyone doing little projects or just chatting. I had so much fun! I finally glimpsed a little bit of what I've been missing for so long. I enjoy the company of these ladies so much, and love that they are so much fun to hang out with. It might sound a bit silly that I am going on and on about it, but tonight I am feeling blessed to have had a wonderful evening with some wonderful friends!

I don't think it sounds silly at all. I had two close friends here but they have both since moved away. I have yet to find another close friend here that I could really open up to. So I think I understand what you mean. I am glad you such a great time!
Since we moved to Canby I have felt the same feelings too. I have been invited to several things, but not yet comfortable with calling them up if I needed a favor. I am sure this will change. I love hanging with your fam and Dana's fam. Hope me calling to hang sometimes doesnt bug! Love ya sis! :)
