dogdawn, can you meet friends through your child's classmates at school? My daughter in law and son live in Chillicothe, and she has met many mothers through the school my grandson attends. They have school events and play dates where the parents can meet. People can be pretty friendly in a smaller town. A lot of them came from Peoria and other cities to be in a more laid back town. If you work, you can make friends there, too. I have met a lot of very nice people on this forum, too.



stairat49, I've been trying, I even do "Centers" at my son's school 3x's a week, that's how I've met the one mom. But the others barely crack a smile at you, let alone talk with you. I've even tried hanging outside when I pick the boyo up, but I get a "Hello" & that's it.
I shower, I brush my teeth....I swear I'm a nice person!

It looks as all of those come in a solid. Is this correct?


correct. just don't confuse the palm oil with palm kernel oil. not the same thing.

Your wiccan/paganism endears me to you more than most people, already, as long as your not weirdly cliche about it.

Aww, many thanks HipKat!
But are you trying to tell me I should NOT wear any pointy hats or long black dresses? I do however, have a mole on my nose (remember I'm an EEPW, we grow these honkers pretty well!), that is impossible to just take off.

I'm sure it's been asked somewhere in the 9 pages of banter, but how old are your kids? If they're preschool age, have you considered joining a group such as "MOPS" (Mothers of preschoolers)? My wife joined last year and has met many nice ladies there.

There's also some sort of on-line 'meet-up' website/forum that my wife has looked at where mom's plan outings for their kids... i don't recall the address, though.

We lived here about 8 years before my wife really started making several friends and that was mainly because she became a SAHM and got involved with my son's pre-school and the MOPS group.

Well crap, ya found that video I made with my husband. It's so embarassing. They airbrushed my mole out, & that shade of lipstick is just horrendous on me!! But we got paid huge monies, so I feel that I really didn't compromise any of my beliefs wrongly.

I have a good friend from back home. She's Wiccan, but so absurdly cliche, like she refers to non-Wiccans as, ahem, Muggles and she knows every Goddesses holiday, moon phase, sun phase, fairy dance, solstice gatherings.... Auuuggghhhh....
(Truthfully, I know a lot of that stuff myself)

Actually, I love her, she's super cool, but the Muggles thing is too much.
And she ALWAYS had the best weed!!

I don't think that's what "she pisses people off" means though.

Either way could cause a shortage of friends. Pissed off or pissed on.. matters not.
