How is your summer going? I'm glad you had your angels (with little shining halos) on Father's Day for a couple of hours.... sucks that you had to work! But you gotta do what you gotta do. Are you taking summer school too?

You know what Kim? This is awesome! I truly felt that most of the media that I encountered on Father's Day was negative towards dads. Even though I'm only witnessing this now, it makes up for the bogus turds that I had to listen WHILE I had to wor...

Hi I added you as a friend by mistake. I meant to hit cancel when it told me you had to approve me. I thought I was just adding you to a list of people I thought was interesting. I didn't want to impose my friendship on someone I didn't know. So ...

This might sound cheesey, but I do my best to imagine being a child and reliving what it feels like to "look up" to my parents. Then I sort of "program" my kids down that path. Basically, I want my kids to be excited to see their mom and I try to ...

Children’s emotional well-being during separation and divorce is greatly affected by how both parents work together to provide consistency and stability for the family. Coparenting effectively is the best gift parents can give their children.

Good luck with finals! I finished up a few weeks ago.. thank goodness. I'm taking a break this summer to get moved into my house. School is time consuming... but so worth it! Take care.

The guilty party

I gave it a shot. I guess I don't have the resources to sustain another [perfect] human in my life. It's apparent that I have fallen victim to my hypothesised "emotionally disposable culture."

I was seeing someone for around three months. Another single parent and in pretty much the same socioeconomic status; there was nothing to run from except the relationship itself. I relate it to winning the lottery and deciding to forfeit the winnings to somebody more deserving, because I wasn't in a posi… Continue

"I don't think I'm going to have kids."

This is what my four-year-old tells me tonight as I tuck her asthmatic little frame into my body. Of course she didn't just come out and say this as a matter of fact. We were talking about how I would be her Dad forever and she asked if I would be her Dad when I was a Grandpa and I said, "I won't be a Grandpa unless you or your brother has a baby." Whether or not that was the correct response is unimportant, what I loved is why she didn't want to have kids: "I don't want to cook all the t… Continue

A Brave New World

I had pretty much concluded that life is for the most part random. I believe in something greater (lets skip the details), but what is a life if you can't live it. Meaning, we choose our path because free will coupled with divine intervention would be paradoxical.

I've never been one to look for a great meaning in things because of this. I see every moment as a learning opportunity and if you don't look for that spec of truth, then you are doomed to repeat it; signs are what I thought we… Continue

Walking with crutches (keep on whispering my montra)

I just chickened out here and I can't write what I really want to. What I can say is that we all have our vices and sometimes those vices can bring you down more than you actually deserve. Don't worry america, I'm not a david duchovny nor am I a raging alcoholic, but rather, I'm just not on target. What I wish for myself; this is my vice. Nonetheless, I keep whispering my montra.

If a couple of dumb birds can do it then why can't I?

I noticed a really cool looking bird out my window this morning. It was really long with an exceptionally long beak. I know nothing about birds or I'd tell you what kind it was. As I was watchin its behavior and looking for any neat markings, I noticed another bird just like it only a little smaller, sitting underneith the overhang that the larger bird had rested on.

I automatically assumed that they were a couple, not a couple a birds, but like a married couple ;) But, then I was like, "nah, b… Continue

Hi

I added you as a friend by mistake. I meant to hit cancel when it told me you had to approve me. I thought I was just adding you to a list of people I thought was interesting. I didn't want to impose my friendship on someone I didn't know. So anyway yeah I meant to hit canel and hit the wrong button so you can ignore me or say hello. I'm new to all this and kind of an internet dork so sorry if I'm intruding.

Peace

Lori

Hey you! Are you taking summer classes? I haven't decided... taking a summer off from work and school is looking good. I have had the offer made, so I'll probably take it! What are you plans? How are the kiddos?

School is keeping me buried in unimaginable ways... just like you probably. I'm glad you blogged. I'm off to study, but will comment on your blog later. Take care Jordan!

Whoa. I just now saw a comment that you left in November saying 'where you been, stranger?'

lol Let's just say I am not able to multi-task and got really distracted by the holidays and life and stress...things are much smoother now so I'm back.

Hope you have a great weekend!
