New in life?

I’m new at writing my thoughts on an Internet venue, and it’s been a long time since I put pen to paper to write anything more serious then an absence excuse for one of my children. I’m sitting here wondering why all of a sudden I’ve decided to shout my thoughts out into the interweb. I think I’m just lonely… there are only so many conversations you can have with toddlers and preteens before you start to lose your mind. I’m in a wonderful relationship but he is a contractor and has to be away some (right now for the forsee able future). I have a horrible driving phobia and so I don’t get out much. I’d like to make a few friends and have a few conversations that don’t include the words fart, poop, or “mom! The dog just chewed up you last pair of good shoes”!
