Here I was feeling all fantastically pregnant when WHAM! A sad day hits. I'm sure they come to everyone from time to time, and today mine came in a reminder that I don't have any friends. My mother and godmother, with extremely good intentions, had offered to throw me a baby shower... but as it turns out I couldn't think of even one person to invite (technically I have two becoming-friends in Santa Barbara, but no one I'd make drive to Redlands...). Sigh, baby shower canceled.
But it is sunny, beautiful, and 75 degrees, I live somewhere where I can (and do) walk everywhere, and I am becoming more and more excited to be having this little baby girl, so the self pity is bound to be short lived. Plus, don't people say you can make friends easily when you have a kid? Only three and a half more months to go!

We're looking forward to your shower here!
See you soon.
I'm with you Judy. If it makes you feel any better, today I'm having an anxious day. No reason, just anxious. It's the hormones. They make you nuts. Sorry you're feeling sad. BTW - does your mom want to invite her friends/your extended family? I had one of those showers where people came I'd only met at my wedding. It was kind of fun! But that's my mother-in-law's way of things, so that might not work for all.
Hey Judy, don't give up on us out here in Redlands - Jan and I are still planning to put something together, just not very big. Keep the date open - your godmother says you have to have a shower and they are working on it!!
Love Mom
