Since Lola jumped back into the dating world I have been thinking about finding a mate for myself. It's been a fleeting thought, here and there, throughout the years since my divorce. I have dated but no one seriously. There seemed to be all kinds of good reasons not to get involved with anyone. My divorce took two years and it brought out the worst
Not too long ago I was talking to my ex husband's wife, my son's step mom. This is not a rip on the new wife post so don't get all I hate my ex husband's new wife on me. I like this woman. If I was going to be replaced by anyone I couldn't think of a better person to replace me. Of course, she
Some of you may have noticed that I rarely have pictures on my blog. I take pictures and I even upload them to my computer however I have yet to organize them and label them with names and dates (I know, big surprise). After two years of writing about them I thought it might be nice if you had some faces to put to the
Dogs. That is what the daughter told me last night. "Why are they like dogs, honey?" "Because they eat, sleep, and poop" Hmmm. First of all my daughter loves her dog Stanley more than anything else in the world. I am on equal footing with regards to my daughters love and the dog. The daughter also loves her father, not as much as Stanley or
Today I stopped at Walgreen's to pick up a prescription. I have a thyroid disorder, I take a synthetic hormone replacement. I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's disease when I was 18 or 19. The dose has rarely changed except after the birth of each of my children. I take one pill each morning and never think about it again. When I stopped at Walgreen's to
I recently had to explain optical illusions to my 5 year old daughter. About a month ago my ex husband took down my daughter's ceiling fan. The fan didn't work and it needs to be replaced but when he took it down he discovered that there was no box and old knob and tube. He put in a box but has not rewired yet so there
We had a bad night, or early morning I suppose. My daughter fell out of bed at 1am. This is the second time in recent memory that she has fallen out of bed. I woke immediately and ran to her room where she was sitting on the floor crying. I swear the horse pushed her out of bed. Me: "What's wrong, did you bump your
Ex#2 drops off daughter and has a pipe for the sump pump that he fixed the other day. It has been pumping out water non stop with this melting going on. It was splashing out of the tub and all over the floor. He stopped by with the dog and proceeded to install it. It didn't fit, however, so he ran to the hardware store
I didn't hear back from my ex yesterday. He never responded to my text about strap-ons so this morning I sent him another text asking if he got the last one. He had recently changed phone numbers so I thought maybe he didn't have text messaging set up for the new phone. Me: did you get my message? Him: yesterday? Me: yes, the one about
My ex husband has been helping me with some work at my house. Before he left yesterday I asked him if he could help me hook up my grill. The grill had originally been at the cabin but my brother and I played musical grills and I ended up with the cabin grill. At the cabin it was hooked up to the house rather than
