So I know I posted about being friendless and I have to say things are looking up! I have become friends recently with a girl in my ward who used to be the Relief Society president. She has been really great at just asking me to do things and being willing to just go on a walk or whatever. It's been really nice to have someone who has looked past my awkward shyness and actually help me open up a bit about life and let me share my opinions. Today she and I went to the temple. She found out that I hadn't been able to go since they made the new movie and so she found a baby sitter for both our kids so we could go. It was fun! And I got to treat her to dinner in the cafeteria. I don't really get the chance to do that much for anyone. But I really liked doing it.
In fact I realized the other day while talking to Sam that I speak a different love language than what I feel. I love to give gifts to people. I love thinking about what people want and how to give it to them. And sometimes I agonize over whether it's good enough for them because I want them to know and feel love and appreciation when I give it to them. For instance, someone brought us dinner last week after our lovely trip to the hospital. It was super sweet of her. But I haven't returned her pan yet because I want to return with something it ... but I cannot figure out what yet. So she's probably not going to get her pan back until like ... March? Haha just kidding. I'll figure it out hopefully before Christmas.
But yeah I just wanted to say I have found a friend. Actually I have found a few friends after that post. The girl who brought us dinner also asked to be my friend. We just haven't done anything yet ... maybe I should get on that. Anyways I'm rambling which means I should probably stop writing now.
