As you know, I am off this week for spring break, but I just don't have a lot planned. Sure, there is house cleaning to be done and some other things here and there, but I don't have any crafts or prjects at the moment and frankly, I am worried about being bored. I usually love to read, cook, watch tv, etc., but this time off is so precious this week and I just can't seem to find anything that seems important enough to fill it. I'd usually be thrilled having time off and no plans, but not this time. And I feel guilty because I know James would love a few days with NOTHING to do. Tomorrow I am having lunch with mom, Meggie (my sis), and James and then I am going to go to some antique stores, which wil be fun, and I'm going to Atlanta on Thursday, but . . .
I feel like I should have more friends here. Most of our friends have been military and have left (I miss you Stef) and my single friends, who I hang out with when James is busy, are out of town for spring break. Poor Hannah has no friends to hang out with. And besides, I really don't have too many friends here anyway. When I lived in Maryland, I had a nice circle of friends, but I realized last night, when I was trying to make plans for the week, that I really don't have too many friends here and it made me sad.

You know you always have a friend in East Cobb, yep, that's me. hehehe...me and my two gfs were thinking of going to an Indian restaurant after work, maybe you can join?
Posted by: Eva at April 4, 2005 09:25 AMi truly understand what you feel. sometimes i feel that way too - my friends are so far away. i've met new friends but sometimes, it's easy to miss the old ones you're used to. hang in there - one day the new friends will become old friends :) just let time work its thing.
Posted by: stef at April 4, 2005 01:19 PMYou have blog friends!! You can totally come down and visit me in Florida. :)
Enjoy the time off and being bored- because then you'll actually be a little glad to go back to work next week. Being a bit bored always makes me appreciate my busy life & also makes me glad I do have a job & I'm not a stay-home wife yet. (normally that's all I wish for.)
Maybe some deep spring cleaning? I would LOVE some time to do that! Or organizing pictures, painting a room, working in my garden, etc.
Posted by: girl from florida at April 4, 2005 09:02 PMGosh I know where you're at. When I lived in Texas I had just gotten a wonderful circle of friends going, and now I'm in Cali and it's strange because I know I won't be here for long but at the same time I know I need people to fall back on, and wouldn't mind being that for someone else as well. I've found a few, but it's not the same.
