I moved a little over a year ago, and I've been an at home mom ever since. So far, I know about 3 people I'm not related to, and I know absolutely no one even remotely close to my own age.
My son is in preschool, but that doesn't even give me time for a part time job. Once you consider the cost of day care, it isn't really worth it.
I found a church several months ago, and I thought that would also help with my hermit situation. Sure, I met new people, and I even found some cousins I never knew. That was really cool, but on the down side, even the cousin closest to my age is close to 20 years older than me.
Now, I've developed a theory that the members of my community have to be either 18 and under or 40 +. So, I came up with a new approach. Alumane chapter involvement. So, I go to the web site to find a chapter anywhere near me. There are 2, but from what I could gather, they were both close to an hour away. Not good.
So, I try for months to get in touch with both chapters. I finally do, and it turns out that one is much closer than I originally thought.
So, I tell the contact person that I am extremely interested, and wait to hear something about meetings. Months go by, and I hear nothing. It seems I am back at square one.
Sorry for the long post, but I need some ideas. I'm tired of being a hermit! Please share.
Thanks for reading!
Love in Our Bond,
Lori
