Surviving the Domestic Jungle

I have been neglecting my beloved blog for the hectic going ons of my life! When I have a life I don’t actually have time to write but I figure it is a good trade off. I have been making new friends and catching up with old ones and all in all having fun. With me meeting so many new people, I really wanted to make a big effort in getting to know them and putting myself out there. Being guarded and reserved is not the way to make friends. When it comes to building friendships that will last you really have to expose your dirty laundry. You have to allow someone to see the real you. They also need to do this in return! I used to try and hold back on the “psycho” elements of myself but not anymore! I just let it all hang out there from the get go and if you like me then you like me and if you don’t you don’t and so far so good because people seem to like me! People actually like my little neurotic self! We are really trying to put down roots where we live and stay in our home for the long term. We have been bouncing around from one home to the other once a year and we grew very tired of it and have made a real effort to stay put. Our kids are happy, we are happy and things are good.
