In the picture is my Big, Kendall...I'll miss her. She'll be hard to replace here in Memphis...So, we just moved to Memphis a few weeks ago, and I'm seeing the realization that I am going to have to really try to have friends. I'm not good at intentionally getting out of my box and meeting other people. I've always been on a pom squad or in a club or sorority, but I have never had to make friends from scratch. Kinda scary. I was born and raised in Tulsa and was always involved in something. Then I went an hour and fifteen minutes away to Oklahoma State and was in a sorority. I was just always involved in automatic "friend makers". Now that Jamie and I are married and in a totally new city, we really have to try to make new friends now which can be tough.
Here are the steps we are going to take:
-Join a church
-Join a Sunday School class
-Get involved everywhere we can
-Join a gym
-Possibly meet the alumni chapter of Chi Omega (that may sound desperate, but it could be a smart move)
Basically, I'm eager to meet people! One of my best friends, Molly told me that I'll be fine because I have my best friend here with me already. And that's Jamie, my precious and amazing husband. God will bless us with new and wonderful friends and I am looking forward to that.
Abby! I think you and Jamie are on the right track! Molly is so right, you do have your best friend right with you! I love your blog and am excited to follow where life takes you! I miss you so much! But tell Jamie, I don't miss him. :)
