Mom's Meal Support - The offical thread :) -Do you want to be apart of it? UPDATED page 3

Girls, that you all for FM's of encouragement to keep this going. Chat Icon
Here's how I envision this working for all of us:

1) To ensure that the "support system" does not get overloaded, meaning that the same people would be making meals each time. We need to have a rotating list of girls who can do it. If there is a need, I will throw it out there. DO NOT feel obligated. Sometimes situations (financial, physical or otherwise) would cause someone not to participate. However, they could participate a few weeks or months later. This leaves it open for that. If your name is on the list I PROMISE you that you will not be asked to do it every week. As long as there are enough girls that want to do it, that will not happen. If I find that it is the same 5-10 girls ALL the time, then I would suggest stopping this as the intention here is to relieve stress, not cause it, KWIM?

2) Different NY Counties and States. For example, I live in Monroe, NY (Orange Cty) Ariella lives in Suffolk. I sent food there that was delivered after the girls in her area FM'ed me a list of delivery places.
Therefore, if you want to be a part of this, post your screen name county and state you are in and your availability.

For example: dandr10199
Orange Cty, NY
Available on Fridays only to make a meal. April-October.
October-March anytime.

3) Once I have where everyone is from, I can start to create "small groups" The would be called:
North Fork Suffolk Moms, South Fork Suffolk Moms, North Shore Nassau Moms, South Shore Nassau Moms, Queens moms. Brooklyn Moms, Westchester moms, Orange Cty Moms, Etc.
The other states would have NJ Moms, Georgia moms, NC Moms, etc.

You would be FM'ed all the girls in your group. The group should compile a list of take out/delivery places in their area for others and themselves to use.

4) Once the groups are in place, if there is a need in that groups area, it would go to that group first. If that group has multiple mommies that need help, then the need would go out to the entire list, all counties, all states for delivery and take out meals.

I am interested in everyone's thoughts on this. When you post who you are & your area, please also let me know your thoughts as well.

***to all the have FM'ed me...I have been working since I came back from Disney and I am sorry I did not answer everyone yesterday and today. I will as soon as I have some downtime.

I HEART ALL OF YOU!! YOU GIRLS ROCK!

Dina
