I am a woman. I have two teenage sons that play basketball and cross country. I am very busy.
I only have local friends. I meet many new people. I have traveled twice in my life. I have always lived local.
I am still very busy with my sons' activities, but I am enjoying it all. What activities are your sons up to at the moment? It is so nice to see such an involved parent They're still practicing for the basketball tournament and running cross country. I wish I had their energy! How was your party this past weekend? Did all of your friends come? That sounds like good fun. Are the basketball for a local tournament or is it a national one? My party this weekend went well. Most of my friends managed to make it and they brought some new friends, so it was a great day Oh, it's just a local one. They're not good enough for nationals. lol I'm so glad your party went well! Tell me more about it. I want to live vicariously through you.  I'm sure if they practise hard enough they'll make it to nationals. You can live vicariously through me as much as you like. Yeah, I had about 30 people over for a nice cocktail making party - I had a few bartender friends show people what to do and then we all made seven or eight drinks each and got quite drunk. Also had an experimental competition to see who could make the best cocktail. I thought I would win but it didn't turn out as good as I thought Wow that sounds like a lot of fun, actually. The best cocktail I can make is a glass of wine. ha ha What was the winning cocktail? The winning cocktail was a very fancy chocolate salted caramel white russian. Some of my friends are very talented with flavours. I mean, a glass of wine can be very complicated with the corkscrew and everything. Very tempermental, haha! Yum! Your friends are so talented. The only people I ever see are other moms. Maybe I could sneak out and come to one of your parties one of these days.  Oh absolutely. I have some mom friends too so you can expand your group, but i have lots of interesting friends from all walks of life. You can bring your mom friends too, if you like. I'm having a dinner in two weeks if you are free?.  That sounds wonderful! I have a friend I think would love that. I'll have to check the boys' schedules to make sure I don't have to drive them to/from practice, but I would love to come! What should I bring? Just bring yourself and something to drink. If you want to bring anything that you especially enjoy cooking or baking you can do - its a great way to get my friends to like you immediately - but don't feel the need to bring anything if you are too busy. Your life sounds hectic enough
