Glass doesn't love me.

I have always had bad experiences breaking glass. Today I broke a glass by washing it. My hand was inside wiping it when the glass just sheered in half. It shaved a slice of skin 1/2 in by 1/4 in off the back of my hand. Fun.
The worst experience I have had was when I was cleaning out a votive holder with a butter knife. Yes, I know it sounds like a bad idea now. The knife slipped and actually went right through the bottom of the holder pushing chunks of glass into my hand. I thought that we had it cleaned out, but a couple of months later the spot still had pain. I had to have my hand sliced back open to remove a piece of glass the size of a pencil eraser. At least that was my left hand. Today's incident was my right. While it doesn't hurt, it is bandaged up.
The bittersweet part is that I HAD to do dishes today because we were out of plates and silverware. I had put it off for 2 days and now it was necessary. However with a big gash on my hand and a bunch of bandaids, I won't be able to stick my hand in water. At least I got the dinner plates done first.

Gabriel brought me home a rose last night. He is such a sweet hubby.

Mark keeps hinting, or begging, to go outside. But it has been so blustery and cold so far this week. I don't dare take him out. He has never had an ear infection, and I don't want to start now. If only the wind would die down we could go out.

I joined an online group Matching Moms before I brought my blog back to life in January. With Matching Moms you can chat anonymously chat with other members in your own zip code, so you can choose to meet in person. It was my first attempt to reach out on the internet for friends and adult life. I sent out a hand for of "Hi, I'm Stephanie" messages and received 2 replies. The first mom I instantly clicked with. She was looking for the same non-commitment, I-need-adult-interaction type friendship. We never met but if we never do that is fine too. Getting an e-mail out of the blue saying "How are things going?" is nice.
BUT, the second mom I having issues with and I need advice. After 2 messages back in Feb she proposed a playdate. Being the shy wuss that I am, I was taken back and asked as nicely as I could to get to know each other first. After that I became busy, like mommies do, and I haven't sent or received any messages in a couple of months. Last week I sent a "How are you doing?" message to both moms and received this reply from mom #2.

"Sorry it took me awhile to respond I had to have my laptop repaired. My kids are doing well. I hope yours are as well. I was wondering when you would like to get together. Isabella would love to get out and run around with someone her age. We could go to the lil play land in the mall or there is a small kids park over by 3rd ave. "

How do I respond? We had chatted any more than the first time I declined. On the one hand, setting up the date would be ok. I am not afraid that she is a serial killer or anything. But I also don't know her from Jane Doe or anything about her. And I really don't need a relationship that is full commitment and setting up playdates 3 times a week. I like being the shy little mole that I am. Not being the queen of the social ring suits me. And blogging regularly now fills my need for adult friendship and interaction. So am I over reacting or do I gently dump her? If so how? Do I just ignore her message? Ugh!
