I know it's been a while since I have been on here. as the person who requested this forum I feel oblegated to get more people involved. So I would like to ask if we can each post a little synopsis(spelling?) about our selves (i.e. age, # and age of children) location and a bit about your situation(divorced, widowed, never married, you know that stuff)). that way we can get to know each other. Also I can possibly plan some get togethers that wouldn't be a huge drive for anyone. Just an idea.

I'm Molly. I am 38 with 2 kids and in the process of divorcing my monster of a husband. My daughter Katie is 3 1/2 and son Billy is 1 1/2. I had pretty bad PPD after Billy was born. That got me into therapy and came to the realization that my husband was making me sick - literally. He has never been a father or husband so I feel like I've been a single parent since day one. He has actually admitted his priorities go in this order #1 job #2 tournaments #3 family. Or maybe it was #3 car and then family? Anyway. I am really trying to be strong and positive but right now my life is the pits and I am ready to run. I live in Highland Park but don't have a problem driving anywhere to meet. Debi and I were trying to get together at Woodfield this weekend but I had to cancel because of my horrible life. I am up for anything, anywhere, anytime.  Molly |

Hi Debi - my name is Amy, I'm 36, have a 12 year old daugher and I live in LaGrange which is very close to you. I'd love to meet sometime and "compare notes". The suburbs in Chicago can be a very interesting place to be single....please e-mail me if you're interested in meeting anywhere but the "Living Room" or "Clubhouse"....just kidding, I find both places terribly depressing....I think it's the gold chains, hairy chests that bumm me out the most! quote: Originally posted by jaseand mommy:

I live in Downers Grove and would really like to meet people for social activities,support etc. I don't have any family here and a few friends (without children) all on the North Shore --which is far for me to travel to. My son is not around very many children and I would really love to have him in play groups.--Oh I've never been married.[/qb]

[qb]Hi all, I'm 26 and the mother of 3 month old Xander. I'm a college student (until december) and i also work as a Library assistant (until i get my masters degree in library science). Um, I was just looking for someplace to connect with people as I'm the first of my friends to have a child and most of them are busy no with their new married lives (seriously, my 3 best friends all got married in the last 3 months). So, i guess that's it...[/qb]
