| Have you checked out MOPS or a MOMS Club? I know how you feel, most groups meet a couple times a month and every one is normally very friendly because they are all going through the same thing you are, just on a different street. ↑ |

| As I mentioned in another post, start an at-home moms group! I did! You talk to moms in parks, put up a notice in the library, an ad in the paper, mention it to any parenting organizations in town. We had a nice group and I am still friends with many of the women even though the group formally disbanded after I ended up taking care of a family friend with ALS. Now I have about three different at-home moms I get together with, and there's a new at-home mom group in town also. We had twice a month meetings with the moms and kids, mom's night out once a month, a preschool playgroup, and whole family get-togethers occasionally. Everybody got to know each other, and we had many discussions. Some moms got together additionally on their own apart from the usual meetings, and many friendships were formed. ↑ |

| Well Stacy I'm in the same boat. Most people that are our age don't have kids. I have a hard time meeting people too. If you ever want to e-mail back and forth my e-mail is [email protected]. By the way : ) I'm 26, boy and a girl, married and live in B.C. Canada. Hope to hear from you Tara. ↑ |

Sorry,
Didn't mean to sound vague. I was actually being rushed out the door by my husband and 2 girls. What I am talking about is my most recent business venture. I have started with a company called Arbonne International which offers pure Swiss skin care, color, nutrition, weight loss and aromatherapy. Initially I have to admit that I started for selfish reasons. I was tired of running all the time with 2 kids and ending up with stress and no time and still not enough money at the end of the month. Now that I have been doing this business since March it has become less about me and more about other people. I have made so many new friendships and these are much closer than friendships of the past. I have increased my self esteem tremendously by helping other women get started and build their own business as well. The money has been tremendous but the real pay off has come in the fact that I chose when I work and I have made many new friends and been able to help women feel appreciated and even "glamorous" as one girl put it. So you can see why I was vague. I was trying to make a long story short! Take care,
Nicole ↑ |
