Ladies of Hunters Green

Right before labor day weekend, Tom found a flyer stuck to our mailbox which advertised creating a ladies group and listed the events going on for the coming year. I decided to join them for dinner last night and see what it was all about. I had hesitations as I guessed most were stay at home moms and I wasn't sure how well I would fit in with them. At the same time, I was intrigued by the idea of getting know more of my neighbors and seeing if any would have kids around Owen's age. It turned out to be quite a fun night. It was nice to meet new people from a range of ages and some who do have kids relatively close to Owen's age. It was still difficult to be one of the 2-3 people there that worked for any amount of time outside the home and my world doesn't revolve around the kids and looking forward to when Tom came home to give me relief. I found out that I probably had more in common with their husbands - as they seem ALL to work at P&G; I guess that's how they can stay home. I think I'll go back out with these ladies and give them another try next month before I decide whether or not I'll commit to joining the group.

I guess you'll have to send Tommy to those from now on.
