Since it's so danm cold there days,I don't get to have my fill of ocean air as much as a peices like me requires.Today I took my son to the coast,had a nice lunch in a great cafe,and had a ball at the local "new age" magic shop.It was very cheap and we spent quite alot of time poking around.It is going to be so difficult to let someone in to the comfortabe place I've created for my son and I..Oh well

I understand that feeling. My almost 7 yr old little girl & I have been on our own for 2 yrs. I can see it being VERY difficult in some respects, if someone ever came into our lives so much as to live with us. But in the end, if its meant to be with someone, for either of us, it will all fall into place ... with patience, & understanding & work!

Well in church today I was over come with that feeling of loniliness,isnt that strange? I'm supposed to be comforted in church knowing you are never alone,but being around all the "couples" and families,I had that moment of yearning for a special man.,then on the way home I torment myself with memories of that man i used to love so very muck,and I make the decision that I am still not ready to date because I still miss a**h***e sometimes!! I will get over this soon,I always do,and thankfully he comes into my head less and less..We have had no contact in 4 months,and it truly is over,and most of the time I am great, but every now and then I let myself remember the good,and I always force myself to remember the bad,the reasons I stay away.Anyway thanks for letting me ramble..

YOu know, it is hard for all of us to be single - especially when you have the memories and lifestyle of a couple. It stinks to have to start dating all over again. I think the church atmosphere with all the couples just set you over the edge. And that is normal. I bet you have good days and bad days - and pretty soon the good outweight the bad. That is how it has been for me - so I do understand how you feel.

Ramble all you want!! We love to hear from new people!!

I wish there was church for single parent families. I would go to that one! We've tried going to church, but I really feel like an outsider with the 2-parent families. Some church going SAHMs seem like they're from another plant sometimes. One SAHM, church lady, had the nerve to ask me why I chose to work outside the home. I said, "Because I have too." She sighed a superior sigh and said, "That's too bad."

That's neat that you had a fun day with your son. I feel the same way about mine. Even though I would marry my SO, I still get twinges of cold feet at the thought of having him around 24/7 and in the house with me and DS. Family is my son and it has been that way since DS was 5 months old.

Well a quick update on my "sorrowful" day, It ended up turning out amazing. I was writing in my diary when my friend called me to ask if I wanted to have a pshcic reading!! I jumped on it and got quite a few answers.I did believe all she told me,and I feel very relived of my life choice I have made,and valadation. Life sure is interesting huh?
