Blue day

[mamagotcha]

I know it's still a time of transition and settling, and it's the middle of winter, and I'm kinda isolated with the boys, and I'm not very high energy right now...

but I feel like I've been going to homeschooling, SCA, knitting and other gatherings, and really trying to meet people, and the few I've felt drawn to I'm trying very hard not to alienate by being too desperate for adult companionship... and I haven't really felt that any of them are really drawn to me, just kinda like they're being nice to me 'cause I'm new here (for which I'm immensely grateful, don't get me wrong!)...

I don't think any of the people I've met in Chicago even read my LJ.

Just feeling a little down, lonely, sad.

It's really hard making close friends in a new place, especially when you work at home. I've found some people I like here, mostly my writing group and one or two others, but kightp -- who lives an hour away -- is the only one who feels like a friend-friend rather than a friendly acquaintance. So far, anyway.
