Holla At Your Girls

It was an encouraging first step.

I met some of my contemporary stepmoms face-to-face. Five of us gathered in downtown Austin for fancy barbeque, including fellow blogger, Erin of The Erin Experiment. She and her husband were in town from Chicago celebrating their third wedding anniversary and indulging in some much-deserved stepparenting R and R.

Our group was much smaller than originally expected (see La Belle Mere), but family obligations, escalated airline costs and general economic woes were keeping ladies home this summer.

Still, our little group discussed a variety of topics, ranging from the difference between stepsons and stepdaughters, how to handle the ex-wife, why we discipline the way we do, and how the hell did we get into this mess in the first place? We also discussed the merits of good wine to alleviate stepparenting stress and pole dancing for dropping extra pounds (lbs most likely due to excessive wine consumption).

… a delicious treat.

It was a lovely evening and I’m already at work planning the next one. Look for a larger, national conference next spring in conjunction with an exciting event (no, I’m not pregnant) that I’ll keep you posted on. Any of you who want to partner up, please let me know.

In the meantime, I’m going to Holla at My Girls–that is, my local Austin stepmoms. The first Austin Step-Ladies Mixer coming soon!

If you haven’t already, I encourage the rest of you to start your own local stepmom groups in other parts of the country. I love my online community, but sitting down with real women to linger over great food and share honest conversation is such a delicious treat.

Cheers,

    Any Chicago Stepmom Bloggers out there? I had such a fine time in Austin and unfortunately, I can’t afford to fly down for every Stepmom Blogger Meet Up.

    If there are any Chicago Stepmom Bloggers who would want to do a face-to-face please let me know!
