"The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by human hands. And he is not served by human hands, as if he needed anything. Rather, he himself gives everyone life and breath and everything else...God did this so that they would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from any one of us. For in him we live and move and have our being." ~Acts 17:24-28

SAHM Syndrome
Since I know there are a lot of SAHM's out there that blog, I wonder, can you tell me, how do you stay connected to the outside world? Other than blogging of course? I feel so disconnected. There are weeks that go by that I don't see anyone other than my husband and my daughter and the only outings I have are to the grocery store. I have tried finding a local play group with kids The Girl's age, but haven't been successful. Some days it's fine, but other days I am overwhelmed by the need to be social and be out of my house. How do you do it?

see if your local library has any babytime classes. I met tons of other moms there and have turned those meetings into play/coffee dates. also, if you have a Borders or other major bookstore in your area, they probably have a similar babytime/storytime activity. good luck. I've found the whole process to be a cross between dating/joining a sorority. still, I've found it to be great for my son, and really helpful for me too.
There really aren't a lot of playgroups in my area so I am starting a local MOMS club. It's a national non-profit group with not only playgroups but activities for mom which allows her to bring her children. If you want more information let me know.
