So far, so good
This weekend is going really well so far. Friday evening was a bit touchy, I think I was worn out from work and in a hypersensitive mood. I had unexpected guests arrive at midnight. I was tired and ready to go to bed. I wasn’t a very good hostess.
Saturday though, was wonderful. I took the kids to Ala Moana Beach Park to go to my friend’s BBQ. My kids played with her kids and the two of us were able to chat and laugh about anything and everything. I invited my neighbor to come down and eat with us, which he did. We ate and then went swimming with the kids, splashing and playing around.
I enjoyed today for the good times I had with my friends. Although I have been in Hawaii for more than two years, it has taken a little while to make new friends. I can be shy; people usually have to seek me out and initiate a friendship. I am afraid to initiate a new friendship. I mean, what if they secretly DON’T LIKE ME at all? I’m sure everyone knows a person or two that they are nice to even when they can’t stand them, yet the other person is oblivious. I don’t want to be the oblivious one…
I guess I should be off to bed to catch some sleep before Sunday morning (though it actually is Sunday morning, 3am). Someone very sweet delivered Zippy’s Chili and Rice to me, now that I’ve finished eating the entire bowl, I’m ready for dreamland.
Aloha, Loren

Ahhhh, finally you wrote! I’ve been worried about you too. You are a fantastic mother a caring individual…no worry about others liking you. Your main concern are your children. Friends and lovers will come by the guidance of the man above. Whether good or bad they come into our lives for a short-time or a forever.
I look forward in meeting you dear friend on the internet, you’re one cool lady!

Hi Auntie Lynn, I’m still having computer issues but I think they’re almost resolved. Maybe I shouldn’t speak too soon. I’ve been checking in on your site from work but I’m afraid to leave comments, don’t want to get caught reading blogs during work time! Not that I abuse the system but sometimes I just can’t wait until after work…
I look forward to meeting you, too. I still look for you when I’m out and around. Hopefully First Friday will still work out for us!

Hi Loren! don’t worry about leaving comments. I know you and others are reading. It’s like your blog. The same goes for you so do not feel discouraged. First and foremost is you write for yourself. Use it as a tool, a friend to ventilate your every most feelings and thoughts if you dare…who cares? The main thing, you have fun.
Luv,
Aunty Lynn
