Mothers Month Roll Call
| Tue, 05-02-2006 - 8:44am |
It is almost Mother's Day!! And I see so many new and happy faces here. It is spring in most places and even as warm as summer in some.
It would be great to get a roll call from everyone so we can all see who is who around here. Let us know your name, approximate age, genders and ages of children and your general location. Also add in some info on how long you've been a single parent, and your current dating status or dating history.

I'm Snow. I am 30 and I live in a small college town outside of minneapolis/st paul.
I have two children, Snickers(dd) Age 6 and Woobie(ds) age 2.
I separated from my husband in 2002, and he passed away in 2003, so we were never officially divorced, but I got to go through the drama of it all and we had a joint parenting plan from the time I moved out.
I am not interested in a serious relationship right now, but a guy friend who I could hang out with and then have slowly progress to something more without a bunch of upfront relationship pressure would be wonderful. But again, I'm totally fine being alone until someone I like actually likes me back for once or vice versa!! ;)
Since I am new to this board, I have enjoyed very much getting to know everyone. You all have made me feel very welcome here. :)

Lisa,

I am getting over a long crush with a coach that I spent a lot of time with - no regrets - many good memories for sure and I am in the best shape from being with him. Haven't seen him for 3 weeks and it gets easier every day.
Have decided that I am going to get busier doing more of the things I love and just getting out of the house (I work from home). I have a group I swim with and run with and am biking a lot. And I even have a new coach. I am not going back to OLD - spent a couple of years doing that and met a lot of people - even had a couple of relationships but am tired of it. I don't want to settle just to be in a relationship - I want someone fun with the same interests who will really add to my life and whom I can't live without.
I just want to be me and be free and see what happens. I have the rest of my life so there is no rush. I do believe that when you close one window, another one opens - so of course I will keep you all posted. DS is doing GREAT in school - all A's - and we just got a pool and 2 new puppies - so our life is so good - much to be thankful for.
We have so many wonderful people on our board now and I am having fun reading all of the stories here.
Hi, I'm Lisa, 39, and I live in the Boston area. Single mom of 2 DD's ages - soon to be 5(aug) and 15 (July) I have been married 2x, once to a man who is gay (didn't know until after we separated) and another to a meathead(and I'm being kind). I have an excellent relationship with my first X (gay) and a not so good with the second.
I have been single for 2 yrs, and have actively dated for almost that amount of time. I'm very tired of OLD so I am 'winging' it. Frankly not liking it one bit. Looking for a strong, secure, relationship, NOT looking to get married again...but do want someone special in a committed relationship. I have had 2 serious relationships that have happend within these 2 yrs, one of them was LDR (CALI) it lasted 5 mos. The other was a whirlwind 3 mos, and crashed and burned (I was a rebound for him).
FINALLY after SOOO many years, I have decided NOT to settle. I know what I want and I'm not going to give my heart to just any joe shmoe.
I don't post nearly as much as I would like to, but I do lurk everyday, and want to tell everyone how great they all are! :)

My daughter is 11 yrs old, her name is Rachel.
I have never been married so I have always been a single parent.
As far as dating, well, I had taken my self out of the dating game for quite some time now, but recently have been getting the courage to jump back in. So i'm sure I will be needing alot of advice in the near future.

I hail from Watkins Glen!
If it weren't for the races here, I don't think anyone would know where we are! LOL
I don't get up to Binghamton often but they do have a few nice shopping malls there.
I was up to the Carousel a few months ago, they have added quite a few stores haven't they?
I can't wait until they open the the new casino in Owego, it's an hour os so from here.
