I have been struggling with baby isolation

I have been struggling with feeling isolated being a stay at home mom. Im lucky if i even get to talk to someone more then once a day sometimes not even that because i never get to see my husband. Im haveing trouble finding friends in the area that have free time. I miss my old childhood days when i used to come over to my best friends house every day after school. I wish i had a best friend neighbor.has anyone solved a problem like this?

When I moved in here, I befriended the neighbor opposite my house because our daughters were in the same high school. When I wanna chat, I just text her if she's free so I can come over.
Sometimes, we go to the supermarket together.

Now, our daughters are in college, different universities but they grew up close & became best friends.

My long time friends are in the city. I'm now in a rural area so I can't meet them constantly. It's a one hour drive.

Find a neighbor with similar interests or family dynamics. Her husband is a seaman, always away & I don't have a husband anymore.

@1PrivateHannah the neighbors around are elderly. But i would love if i had a neiber like that. I have not been able to talk to neighbors much they dont hang out around their house much.
