  1. Chris is like Scott Conant from Chopped. Scott doesn’t like raw onions. 
     

    Just for Amy using onions he should leave her. Imagine him picking out the onions from every dish. Not sure how he can stand her onion/garlic breath 24/7.

    In person or online?  If in person, what about becoming a volunteer somehwere?  My lighthouse group is always doing things together.  Or a book club?  Good way to meet people and chat about books you may not have thought you'd ever read.  Or, if religious, a church group? 

    There are lots of ways to meet folks if you get out there.  I have made lots of friends and acquaitances just through my volunteer activities. I still keep in touch with some of those I met when working the mass vax clinics and my hospital volunteer group does things together as well.

    In person. Volunteer is a no. I need to make $$$ to live. I’m an atheist…

    Where do your interests lie?  Do you have a creative bent, painting-sewing-jewelry making-cooking, gardening...or do your inclinations tend to be physical such as sports, or mental such as reading or card games? 

    If you live in an isolated community where organized activities aren't available, maybe it's time to consider a move to a more urban setting where there is more opportunity for volunteer or active participation in hobby groups.  The YWCA or night school classes may be a good starting point.

    Don't let your desperation for friends show, take a deep breath and be as natural and witty as you are with your friends here and let nature take it's course.  If you are sincerely interested in whatever approach you engage in and not obviously just seeking companionship, the friendships will flow organically.

    If you do engage in an activity where you make acquaintances, why not suggest a few of you get together for a movie or concert or invite them to your home for coffee, drinks or a meal?

    Good luck to you, loneliness can be debilitating and self-perpetuating.  Take action and don't let it rule your life. xo

    I live in NY so not rural at all.

    Meetup is really good, esp for walking and hiking groups. There's something about walking that I find is a great way to break the ice. Hiking too. But not in this heat! GL

    Meet up was a bust for me. I’m willing to try. I’m desperate for friends.

    Those boys are too darn cute, before and after the haircuts! I wish Jill could cut Sprugeon and Henry's hair. There are haircuts out there that can still keep the curls. They just need a style. Izzy and Sam have haircuts that are perfect for the hot weather. Sprug and Henry constantly look like they are a sweaty mess.

    Because Sewarld offspring is a hot sweaty mess.

    That’s one of the things with the pj thing. Those kids are getting dirty and, I’m sure, sweaty. It’s summer in Arkansas. It’s hot and they’re wearing long sleeves and long pants. I can only imagine she rarely cleans her sheets and the bed and linens probably stinks. 🤮

    I doubt Jessa bathes them daily in this heat or changes the sheets. 
     

    Her house and birthing couch reek.

    I wonder if Amy asks permission before snapping pics and does she ask if it’s ok to post them online?

    I have a friend (not a close friend more like an acquaintance) who constantly takes pics of herself and whoever she’s out with, if it’s dinner she hops up and snaps pics of everyone seated at the table, she’ll snap pics when the food arrives and during the dinner as well and then she’ll snap more after the dinner and she posts them to her blog… she never asks if anyone minds having their pic taken or if they mind it being posted online, most people assumed the pics were just for herself but a few people found out after the fact that their pics were online and they were quite upset plus she also names everyone in the pic… left to right like…”this is Donna Fraser her husband Bob Fraser, Jane Kennedy and her husband Bill” etc etc…  🥴

    Just wondering…Would you mind if someone took your pic and posted it online without asking your permission?

    Is your friend Jill Rodrigues? 
     

    All joking aside I do not like people posting my pictures without my permission. I’m happy to wear a mask for that reason alone.
