I second getting involved with volunteering as a good way to meet friends. Also if there is a community center near you or a YMCA/YWCA then you could take classes you are interested in and meet people (you could also take classes at a local community college- often they have low cost classes for nonmatriculating adults). If you have a local library they might have activities for adults like book groups or you could volunteer there (they usually all like people to help out.) I'm assuming you are a mom, so there is the possibility of getting involved with your children's school as part of the PTA/PTSA to meet other parents. This is what comes to mind quickly. If you need more ideas just ask.
