Good morning....top of the day to all.
I have a lot of inquiries coming in on the subject of being a divorced mom...yep thats me now. Does single and divorced mean the same thing? I have no idea what my label is and its confusing to me. Here's what I know, everything about divorce is better for my life except for....car maintenance, Christmas lights and gutter cleaning. Other than those 3 things- life is smooth and easy, even with 3 kids. We run like a well oiled engine with a few suptters here and there.
The single part of it? I dont pay much attention. I have my nose to the grindstone gotta feed kids, clean house, help with homework, attend soccer tennis and football games, make meals, plunge toilets... if I have time to wash my hair these days I'm lucky. Sounds sexy doesnt it? Far as dating which I think is what everyone really wants to know. I'm not an on-liner, not that I'm too cool, I just spend a lot of time writing women from the site, keeping up the blog, writing parenting articles and books, so meeting a prince that way does not appeal to me at the moment.
I think the key might be---- keeping ourselves and our lives open and everchanging. Putting ourselves out there when we wouldnt normally. For me this means going into the bank instead of paying bills and transferring money on line, or saying yes to an occasional party invite. I am the worst closet anti social and no one really knows it, except my ex.
My idea of good life, is staying focused on whats at hand, and knowing somewhere in there, life with throw us a bone. I can't fixate on the single thing. Somewhere in me I know that one day there will be some wonderful guy I meet, and when it happens I will know. Thats where I am on the whole thing. When my thoughts change about this I will let everyone know.
Bottom line, stay true to you, whatever and however that may look. Who cares what people say and think just keep hold of what you think!
Luck in love to all.
