Cass what an absolutely beautiful lady you are, I have really struggled to live where I am(in the country too,so that doesn't help) and there just aren't enough friendly people around who just want to have a cuppa and a chat. Well done to you
Please make contact with this family. Who knows where it could lead you both
Today has been a rather below average day here, and I am guilty of yelling at my girls tonight, silly things like running in the kitchen whilst Im making dinner (things on the stove, sharp knives) and a few other things that after using every other parenting tool, I yelled. (Im also at my wits end at the moment)
Anyhow, after going off at them, I really felt alone. My neighbours think they have the right to judge me and talk badly about me behind my back about my parenting skills, my pet ownership skills, yet to my face they tell me how they all helped each other raise their children in this very street. It hurts to no end to think of the double standards that they have, that it was ok to help out when they were in my position, but they are no longer willing to help out the next generation going through the same thing.
So please go and meet your neighbours and try to start friendships, its terribly lonely within those four walls at times, even more so when there is no help at hand.
Cass hope you have fun meeting your neighbours. Not sure which area ofthe Capital you ae in but if you ever want to meet up let me know, I have 3 under double figures who love parks.
