i had dinner with kate & julie last night. part of the conversation went like this:
me: so, i know i need to find some kids for my kids to play with & i should make some mom friends, so i...am...going to my first MOPS meeting tomorrow morning.
kate, graciously playing into the drama: [GASP!] my, how the mighty have fallen!
julie: and how far!
but i got home from dinner & violet had been "buffing", as she put it. we spent all night snuggling on the couch together, in between her barfing fits, until 5am. so i guess no one has fallen, quite yet.

ha ha! i got asked a few weeks ago why i don't go to MOPS and if i have a bad attitude concerning MOPS, and thought about it and said, "yes. yes, i do!"
get yerself some rest if you can!
there's always next week for mops.
i thought about texting you in the wee small hours...i was awake too, feeling crazed. buffing in my heart, if not literally. went to a lactation class last night and while i'm glad i went, i was also completely overwhelmed. so much to know, so little retention.
let's all take a nap.
that's funny lindsay, i was asked the same thing last weekend! i just can't do it. maybe when i have another kid or too, i will be driven to do such things. but not yet. i can't be a MOP yet.
i think the MOP recruiters have it out for us whocaresians. :-)
do any of you go? hope i'm not offending anyone...i just don't think it's for me. if i was in the same position as caron, i'd probably be banging down MOPS' door.
I actually had not even heard of MOPS until a year or so ago. So, therefore, it is not high on my list of things to do. Large groups of women with children sort of overwhelm me.
But, man, Caron-- you gotta make friends, I hear you! If you're doing MOPS maybe the whole thing will suddenly be "the cool" thing to do. :) Just like Jazzercize has totally become the cool thing to do now that Cheryl Dyer is doing it. hee hee
sheesh! yes! i saw a jazzercise place in peoria the other day & thought of you & smiled big. cheryl, it HAS become SO COOL because of your amazing results. and because you are the epitome of coolness.
i'm okay with going to MOPS. i'm okay with doing stuff that i don't think is "the coolest". i never thought i'd be married with kids at 28 years old...and here i am. there are lots of things i never really dreamed of doing that have become practical or even semi-dreamy to me..because of the outcome.
