Mom Overwhelm 911

As moms, we often find ourselves overwhelmed.

For those of us who have our family and childhood friends who live out of state,
we are even more overwhelmed with everyday tasks.

The problem is that we don't have a community to support us.

My goal is to learn everything I can about creating a community, try
it myself and see if in one year's time I can have a great support
system, better friends, a happier family and less overwhelm.

I also want to see if I can significantly improve the lives of those
around me who also want to establish a community.

I have some ideas of how to do this and I've already had
a few minor successes in the last few weeks. I'll be experimenting
and asking for your ideas of what has worked and what
I could try.

I, Sheri Menelli, am also joined by Rhonda Schonberger who came
up with this idea over a year ago. She lives 45 minutes away
from me and is in a completely different part of her life - her
kids are grown and she is single.

She will also be trying to create her own community for her
own needs.

A few of my friends have asked if I'm writing a book. Well,
maybe. I guess it depends on what I can create in the
course of a year and how much overwhelm I can overcome.

Let the journey out of overwhelm begin!
