ROLL CALL - Welcome to all

Wow - we have so many nice new members here. And of course the old favorites as well. I think it is time for a roll call. Tell us -

1) How long a single mom?
2) How many children
3) Dating? Not dating?
4) If not dating, what you are doing to get out there more and meet someone?
5) If dating, tell us how you met and how long and maybe a bit about him?

I have been a single mom for almost 5 years, although as many have said on this board, I have felt like a single mom since the day I was pregnant.

I have one son who is 9.

Currently I am not dating. But I want to be....

I have recently whirled up a bunch of things to get myself "out there" and out of this house (home office)-
- remodel the kitchen - lots of trips to home depot and lowes ;-)
- add a pool
- fix my teeth - basically whiten them more and get new white fillings
- sign up for chef's classes and a prochef's certification at my old school in NY - this will mean a lot of studying and research - maybe in bookstores and starbucks with my laptop
- participating in more group workout sessions with other athletes in this area - met one cute guy on last weeks swim
- go out with 20-something babysitters whenenver I can - they have helped me update my wardrobe and they are really in the same boat as me with regards to trying to finding someone, too. So I don't feel so bad that I am in this boat. A lot of women are in this boat regardless of age, marital status and kids/no kids.
- okay - and back on match.com - although begrudgingly - I am not convinced on this but will see and keep you guys posted

Okay - that is about me - I would love to hear about everyone here - calling all lurkers - and even alumni - what are you all up to? If you want to add more that is great, too.

CHEERS!!
