Ha, I could so relate to your post. I was a stay at home mother for two years...and then had to return to work as I was going crazy!!! This was 20 years ago and those were different times. I imagine that if I were a SAHM today, I'd probably use my Type A personality to start a money-generating "yummy mummy" blog. I also tried to make friends, did the play date things, joined the PAC, helped at soccer camp...but I was treated with polite unease by the other mothers who treated me as if I was an alien. I never understood why until much later.
