What: Open forum support group meeting

Where: Woody's Grill:

6399 City West Parkway
Eden Prairie, MN 55344

Phone: [masked]


When: 4:00-6:45

This event is an opportunity for moms to share their stories, ask for advice and hopefully offer some of their insight to fellow members. Julie Rappaport, counselor and author, will be speaking along side her ex-husband. Word is that he adds a lot to the conversation, and many women end up relating to his story.

Members can order drinks and food off the menu during the event if they so choose. Suggestion: call ahead of time so that your food is ready when you arrive. That will really help out the waitress and prevent any distractions from the main event.

    Lee and I are truly looking forward to being there this afternoon. If any of you have a chance to listen in, we'll be on the radio show, RAISING THE CONSCIOUSNESS on AM950 from 1-2pm, before heading over to you ladies. http://WWW.AM950KTNF.COM/LI... Lee and I like to talk about living as victims or living as thrivers, not just survivors. It's something we have to practice each and every day, ourselves. We share our trials and tribulations. You are not alone!

    Woody's is extending their happy hour specials for us: 3-6 o'clock, $3 off appitizers and drinks. Their telephone number is [masked]. It is a good idea to call ahead. Here is a link to their menu: http://www.woodysgrille.com...

    This should be a great time! Of course it's always fun to get together and do social events, but I know that I certainly can use the wisdom of other women and it helps to talk about our experiences so that we know we are definitely not alone, even though it may feel like it more often than not. If there's any specific subject or topic you would like to discuss, please let us know so I can pass it along to Julie.

       This meetup was fabulous. I walked out feeling renewed and supported. I am so thankful for this group. Single moms rock!!! 
    •  I thought it went VERY well - especially for our first REAL support meet-up. It was great to finally meet a lot of the members that I've been corresponding with and it gave us all a chance to tell our stories and open up a bit, realizing the amount of support that is out there. I hope we do more of these on a regular basis.

       I thought the topic of the meeting was good. I actually like having Lee there because it gave a guys perspective of how to let go of the anger and move on.
