Hi,

My name is Elizabeth and i am 20 years old. I am married and  have a 7 mo daughter named Mollie... we need friends.. functioning friends.lol. I like to go do things but hesitate to do them alone. I think Mollie would benefit from another child her age to roll around with. I am very laid back and not a neat freak by any stretch of the imagination. I basically am looking for some one to do crafts with like hair bows and things like that . I want to learn these things. I want to go to the park and have activities to look forward to in the week. ALSO, I am very interested in hearing how a typical schedule looks like because i am having a difficult time managing house work and parenting, I am a bit low energy.

 I don't mean this to sound like a personal ad but i get so bored at home and would like to find other moms to bounce ideas off of for family outings. Also if there are any moms in Bakersfield who are into walking for exercise or something(low impact) please email me DRAMAQUEEN4FUN@AOL.COM I am in the oildale area but i have no problem going to another part of town for a get together.

Welcome to the Group.  As for schedules...it sounds like you might be SAHM - so I'm not sure how your schedule would work...mine goes crazy but I get up, get ready (no breakfast usually), get the kids ready (with Breakfast), drive to school, drive to daycare, drive to work, work, run errands/throw food in crockpot/eat lunch, work some more, drive to school, drive to daycare, drive home.  Do homework/cook dinner/do laundry/clean house/bathe kids, put kids to bed (hopefully they stay there) then stay up and work/do laundry/dishes/clean house.

Yeah, looks about right.  Oh, and weekends are drive like crazy to get errands not completed on lunch hour done/groceries/clean house/laundry/work part-time/and an occassional Stampin' Up get-together. 

I would not say that I'm bored...cause I can think of a ton of things to do...it's just that I get bored with my life not having enough time. 

Get out there...go by yourself and make new friends.  I wish I could stay at home with my little ones but now they are half grown...get going on some Mommy-and-me classes, get to Michael's or Beverly's and see if they have craft classes.  I know that there are MOPS...see if maybe you can get into something similar, but younger, obviously.  Do you go to church?  See if your church runs anything. 

Or, just post here - Wanted - Stroller Mama to Get in Shape! Or Looking for Another Mama to Stop From Going Crazy...you will be surprised by what pops up!

well i wish i could go walking with you but i live about 45 minutes from town,  theres only 9 houses up here where i live and only two other moms (under the age of 45) one is always gone with field trips with her home schooled kids and the other i dont get along with at all.  its hard, my son will be 8months old on the nov 5th and having him and my husband as my only human contact for weeks on end can be difficult to handle sometimes. I have all my family in bako but we just cant afford for me to drive to town. i just wanted to say hi
