Roundup

I will have it up tonight, promise. Sorry all. Fell asleep working on it last night. Woke up at 3 and couldn’t sleep, but when I started working on it at 5:30, I fell asleep again. Argh. Now late for work!! I am so on it tonight. [...]

Still sick

I am still so sick. Whole body hurts, all day feeling of nausea combined with hunger, ability to eat way more than normal (because of the gastric bypass, I usually can’t eat much – only changed when I was pregnant with Pumpkinhead), wicked sore breasts, peeing constantly (and constantly thirsty), aversion to alcohol, heightened [...]

Moved

Commenter Jill says my blog posts didn’t make my current living situation clear. So here’s the update: Crazy Roomie went nuts right over Memorial Day weekend when I was dealing with my Aunt’s death. Did lots of insane things like threaten litigation and call me DURING THE FUNERAL to scream at me. Ugh. [...]

Ugh, sick

I hate it when my mother is right. She said, “You are going to do too much in the move and end up having another one of your pain attacks.” Harumph. Here I am in pain. But this one is different… It started about two weeks ago when we went out for [...]

What I’m Not Posting

So I come here all the time intending to blog about many things. But for one reason or another — usually lack of time or inability to string coherent sentences together — the posts never come together. I haven’t mentioned that Chapin lost his job. Fortunately he found another. Unfortunately it means traveling a [...]

I also spend way too much money at Babeland, the only of the online stores I have found that has a really unintimidating feel for women. It was founded by two women is very female-friendly with lots of guides and explanations.

Sex before dating? Time-saver for busy single parents?

The New York Times has an op-ed article today about how more people are having sex and THEN deciding whether to go out on a date. I have a theory about this. You can read more at http://ptlawmom.com/2008/12/sex-first-then-dating/ and weigh in with your thoughts on my theory.

Changing the way you see a potential mate

The biggest part of this divorce journey is trying to change my perspective of others so I do not repeat the mistakes I have made in past relationships. I'm doing a lot of therapy and attending a support group.

Today I blogged about my changing perspective on romance and bad boys. I think I'm coming to realize that I'd rather have a good, stable man who provides what my heart needs rather than an exciting, titillating man who provides other ne… Continue

Men!

Chapin called today to set up a time to meet on Saturday and go to Sprint to split our cell phones. We also still need to split insurance and he needs to give me the darn truck to sell. Anyway, he called and said, “I have a big favor to ask. Can I borrow $200?” I said, “For what?” He replied, “I need to pay some guys who are doing work down in Guatemala.” I said, “No.” Then he got mad and started to bitch about his taxes as a single person, high child support, etc. Finally he said, “Well… Continue

Men are from Mars

My DivorceCare group tells us to adjust our expectations of what our ex-husbands/co-parents should be doing in relationship to our children and in dealing with us so that reality isn't as harsh and disappointing. As Jeff Mac would tell you, if what a man says and what he does are different, ALWAYS ignore what he says.

My favorite new bloggess, T, sent me over to Manslations today to check out the hilarious advice c… Continue

Sex and the Single Mom

Blue Eyes came over Wednesday night and showed me why he is worth the wait. ;) Ooh baby! We watched a movie and then he slept over. But, as I learned many a time during my marriage, kids have radar. Pumpkinhead gets up every morning around 6 a.m., leaves his room in the main house and comes outside to the poolhouse to cuddle with me for a little while before I have to get up and get ready. Knowing this, I locked my door last night so th… Continue
