I'm new, so do not really know you... but I am impressed. I do not know how old you are... but I like that you are taking the initiative!
I only wish you lived near me and would like to come over and hang with my DD... perhaps it would rub off on her. She USED to be like you... not sure what happened. I blame it on putting her back in public school (sigh).
Hang in there and we will see you soon. By then my DD will have a chick or two most likely and you can chat perhaps!
