it's almost 11:30 a.m. and I'm still in my pajamas. What is wrong with me? I have no desire to get up and go!

I hope no one decides to just drop by my house. But I think that's part of the problem. I know no on will. I didn't even have any phone calls (besides my family) about my birthday.

What is wrong with people that they can't even call a friend and wish them a happy birthday???? I guess this is what happens as you get older.....no one remembers your birthday.

I have coffee every Tuesday with a group of women in my neighborhood. We always go out to lunch to celebrate birthdays. We met yesterday, and no one even mentioned my birthday. I find this group very cliquish (is that a word?) No matter what I do (I call them, invite them places, do things for them), they don't reciprocate.

I have cried and cried about it, and my husband says its because I'm the only one who has sons. They all have teenage daughters. They are always taking their daughters shopping or out to lunch, and I'm the one left out. It really hurts my feelings later when I find out that they'll all had an outing and I wasn't invited.

Gosh, sorry, I'm having a pity party today, but why couldn't they invite me to join them? Just because I don't have a daughter doesn't mean I don't want to go to!
Don't they realize mothers of sons feel left out?

My son, as usual, is at the golf course, my husband is out of town----and I'm at home by myself.

Dang it! I feel left out of a sorority that I'll never belong to. I love my boys, and I won't trade them for anything, but why is it that the mothers of girls don't invite the mothers of sons to join them in their activities?
