April 27th...
There are a lot of women who move around with their military husbands from place to place and are never able to stay in one spot long enough to make many friends. I don't have a statistic or anything to verify that, but it's my assumption and I feel comfortable saying it considering all the women I have talked to and stories I have heard since I have been down here in Tennessee. Some have been here for a year or more and haven't really met anyone yet, and the lonliness is almost unbearable. Because of this I consider myself very very lucky. I was determined to come out of my shell when I moved down here, at least a little bit, and I feel like I have. I reached out to different websites and group gatherings (trial and error, of course lol) but because of it, I have made some really good friends! 2 of whom came over tonight to watch Glee with me, and I can't even describe how nice it is to, not only have time to talk to other adults and watch a great show uninterrupted (until we start talking of course) but also to have friends who are willing to come to me while Derrick is away! I was sure I wasn't going to be able to do ANYTHING while he was gone, just because of me being new here and not really having anyone to watch them if I wanted to go hang out or watch a movie somewhere. So I just wanted to thank you guys for letting my house be the Glee house...at least for now!
On a side note: Derrick gets the credit for this picture, he sent it to me from Afghanistan. I miss him.
I had a lot of fun, too! I am definitely down with Glee night even though I'm kind of anti-social for other things. I'm glad we are friends, so don't forget that!
