Arsene

you negated every single suggestion for GAL that was given and you ignored the list I gave you of mine, most of which cost very little.


YOU MUST DO BETTER at GAL and stop isolating.

OF course you should go to the comedy show (I'm doing a show this week myself and wish you could come and laugh. The only marriage jokes are ones my h has cleared! Of course, he didn't hear the one I dedicated to him in 2006...and never will)

Your d will benefit by the jokes you can tell her and by seeing you relaxed. Are there no people who can attend with you?
I heard a lot of excuses about why it's SO HARD THERE

but dang, I was in the interior of Alaska and knew no one but h's colleagues at work AND had a newborn baby...

I did not surrender to the darkness, figuratively or literally.

Call another group or person. Esp parents of your d's friends, b/c they are a great source of socializing AND baby sitting is often not needed. I

nvite people to do things with you rather than waiting for their invite. If English is a barrier for them, try talking in THEIR language and put yourself out on the limb to "look stupid" instead of them. BEsides we all know they'll appreciate your efforts and no one will think you are stupid.

"Interview" them about their lives so the conversations move along and you learn something substantive.

YOU CAN DO BETTER...I KNOW IT!
