Help!!!! I Am a Stay-at-home Mom with No Life!!

Hi A.!
My name is H.. I moved to Dallas 3ish years ago. I made a really great friend threw Matchingmoms.com I don't make friends that easily. I'm kind of shy in person. I have 2 boys (Gannon 3 and Noah 14 months) I work part-time at a local gym where I get to take my boys with me. If you would like to get together sometime, maybe meet at a mall or for lunch let me know. I too would love to have someone other then Thomas and Barney to speak too (although we are more into The Wiggles at the moment)

Hi A.,

I live in McKinney and am a SAHM with a 15-month-old son. You can e-mail me back at ____@____.com and we can chat! I belong to a couple of playgroups, so I can tell you about them.

i would love to meet with you.
my name is D...
you can email me if you like.

Hi there,
"Stay - at - home - mom with no life?"
That's exactly me! I am also 30 years old not ready to die yet but sometimes I feel as if my life stopped. I came here from Poland a year ago, I have three little girls (twins and a little one)and I am also desperate for a female companionship to chat a bit, go out for a coffee ect.
I wish I went to work, I am currently and so far unsuccessfully looking for a position for myself. :(
If you feel like sending me an email, please do:
____@____.com
Hope to talk to you soon

Hi A.! I know how tough it can be getting to know other people when you stay home with your kids. I'm a SAHM of a 2yr old and a 4 yr old. I'm part of a great group of women that is FREE and open to any Mom! We organized ourselves into a Yahoo Group so that it's easier to stay in touch, and our group is growing. We began in Garland, but we're open to anyone in the area. We have started scheduling a few activities a month, like park days, Moms Night Out, etc. Many times someone will just email the group with a spontaneous plan to meet somewhere. We share advice, gripes, good news, etc through our email loop. Visit our Yahoo site for info or to join: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/MyMomFriends/

Or you can email me if you want to: ____@____.com luck getting to know some other moms. I hope things get better for you!

SAHM of Alex-4 and Tatum-2

I'm 26 & have 4 girls & have been home w/them since the second. She just turned 8 yesterday. I completly feel your pain! What I try to do is involve my kids in things-just so I can go talk to the parents during their activities. But, since your son is so young-Isuggest you try starting a mommy & me group where you live. You'd be surprised how many moms might jump on that idea!

Hi there. I understand how you feel. I joined the Mom's club, and it was so wonderful to meet other SAHM mom's through the club. Plus, they always have fun things scheduled to do throughout the week. They will have a Mom's Club in your area. You may have to go to their webpage to find out what chapter you would be in. Good luck!! Life totally changes when you get active with others!

Hi A.,
Wow, can I relate! My husband and I got transferred here 3 years ago so now I have no parents or sister to hang out with! I've made a few friends here and there but I'm so busy with my 4 year old boy and 8 month old girl that sometimes I feel like an anti-social hermit! Let me know if anyone else responds (or maybe we're the only 2 losers out there..hahaha!) and maybe we could do a 'ladies night out'...try a new restaurant or something. My big date night is Purple Cow in Plano with the kids!

I have a playgroup in the Plano/Allen/McKinney/Frisco area. We meet weekly on either Thurs. or Fri. We also do a Moms' Night Out (got one planned for next Tues.), Dads' Night Out (3/20), Couples' Night Out and Family Night Out. Please email me for more info - we would love to have you join us!

I feel your pain. I found a really good group of girls in my sunday school class at church. A lot of them are stay at home moms too so we have a playgroup where we meet once a week. I have also met Moms at storytime and other activities like going to the park. I dont know if you are open to this but doing some sort of business at home where you go out and have girl nights might be a fun way to meet people too. My friend sells southern living and she loves having parties because those are a great way to meet other moms and women.

Hi A.!! I just moved to Mckinney about 5 months ago from Miami, FL. I know what you mean about having no life. I am a stay at home mom but technically I work because I sell Mary Kay and I am usually pretty busy with that. But email me so we can talk personally. ____@____.com

Hope to hear from you soon.

Hi! I just moved here about two months ago (is anyone here a native?) LOL

I won't say I'm 30 yet - I still have 18 more days to go. I stay at home for now and would love to meet up - coffee, lunch, whatever. I am slowly meeting new people for me and my 6 year old daughter. We had our first play date today.

We are going back to La for a week to visit family for spring break but would like to meet after then. I live in Richardson - Preston and Campbell area. My number isn't local but it's ###-###-####.

Thanks for sending the message!

Hi A.,

I totally understand. I work full time, and am a mommy, with a boyfriend that I live with, but I'm new to the Dallas area (here since last June from Houston) and I am just now getting out to enjoy new places and people. I'd be interested in meeting up with other moms and doing things for and about women.

I am a stay at home mom who just moved from Carrollton to Plano. I am also looking for other Plano mom's to hang out with. Maybe we could meet at the park. My son is two years old.

Hi A.-
Have you tried www.meetup.com? You can search for mom groups by zip code. There are also the Collin County Early Childhood PTA (www.ccecpta.com), MOPS.org, or MOMSClub.org you can look into in your area.

Best of luck!

Your life sounds alot like my own. I am 31 with a 3 year old... without a life of my own. I have always lived in the Dallas area, but my close friends do not have children and can't quite understand why it is so difficult for me to get out!!!

Hey A.,
For ur boredom..u cud join moms club or mothers day out program and get to know moms with kids of the same ages..or if u were lokking something only for urself..try searching for meetups in ur localty and maybe it might just click.

Hello A.,
I know just what you mean. My name is R. Collins and I am a single mom on two. I have a 6 year old daughter and a 4 month old baby boy. I am 34 years old and I am at home with the baby right now so I know how lonely it can get for adult contact. If you ever want to chat, I'll be around.

Hi A.
I'm a stay at home mom the last year after working 10 yrs in corporate america. I'd love to meet you!
Let me know if you'd like to have coffee or do something kid related. I have a 10 yr old girl and a 1 yr old girl :)
Talk to you soon !

You should look into www.dallasareamoms.com. It's a great place to meet other moms.

Hello there,
I can certainly understand, I moved here 4 years ago and did not know anyone as well. Although, my son is 14 years old. I can relate.... I am staying at home for right now due to a car accident. Feel free to email back

A.

Have you tried www.momsclub.com? Not all the chapters have a website but there are acouple in Plano.

Or take your child to a rec center class. That is a great way to meet other SAHM's!

Good luck!

Hey Girl!
Where did you move from? My husband and I moved here from CA last July, with our 16 month old daughter. I am always open to new friendships! Drop me a note and maybe we can get together with our kids sometime.
