I've met quite a few new moms since starting this quest. Many of them are stay at home moms, Jennifer M is one. Kimberley S. is another. others are work from home moms. At the beginning of the year I would have said Holly C. who is a realtor, but since the summer of 2011, I haven't seen much of her. As I write this I hope that Laura K. will be one. The actual task says to meet these woman, but I really want to have woman who are my friends who are WAHM or SAHM. I think it's kind of funny to list friends, but I think it is one way of achieving this task.
I am going to publish this at the end of the quest to see what friendships I can develop over the rest of the 1001 days. Like this author, I want woman I can do specific tasks with: get manicures, get lunch, play dates, dinner with couples, ask for parenting, relationship, or work life balance; new customers;

Update 9/2012: I'm discovering that stay at home moms are easier to come by. Probably because of the meetup group I am in. Also, because that is what I am. Relationships with WAHM are harder to develop...is it because they are busier, or because I have trouble identifying with them. Or I am not exposed to them as much? Maybe I will try harder to meet some. How?
Update 2: 10/2013: It's interesting that the list of people I started with is not the list of people that I see now. Certainly SAHMs are more common in my regular routine mainly because of people that I have met through Josh's activities. There are several moms new to our neighborhood too. And now that Caitlyn is in activities, I am meeting new moms this way too. I have to think about this one more for the next list. I think I will create a category for moms, one for which I enjoy doing certain activities with, as noted above. Also, since I have a remember the milk item for calling friends, I think I will add these moms to my list and invite them to do the things we like to do together.
