Hi.....I am a newbie.... mostly a lurker learning from all of you!

I am 34, with 2 little girls dd4 and dd6. From Philly area....go Phils!!!

I was married 9 years, and have been "going through a divorce" for 2.5 years now. My ex had an affair and moved in with the other woman May 2006, I filed for divorce Aug 2006, but he won't sign the divorce papers until he gets "all he feels he is entitled too" ie the house wont sell, and I can't afford to buy him out without selling. So,,,, here I wait. Its hard to keep hearing everyone on these boards saying how you shouldn't date while you are separated, but I don't think of myself as separated since I filed over two years ago.... but it is what it is......

I have had a couple short relationships, my last one ended in Jan 08. Since then I have been doing OLD on and off, and while I meet many nice guys, it doesn't seem that we are ever looking for the same things, which is hard when you get along but are looking for different things in life. I seem to mostly meet men who are in similar situations to me......divorced or soon to be, with kids, but all of them seem to be soooo jaded toward marriage and relationships and women.....and just want a buddy to hang out with.....which is nice for awhile esp when I am missing my kids when they are with dad......, but I am still missing having a special relationship with someone.

I'll have to start posting more often, but I enjoy reading all your adventures .....it makes me feel good to know others are dealing with similar stories.....and to know there is hope ......

LOL Mark!!!

A shot a moose the year I was pregnant with Nicolas. Unfortunately, he didn't get it cut up by a butcher, so we had 1/4 of a moose in the freezer... and he would thaw it in the tub for a few hours and then take an axe to it: yes, you heard me right, and AXE to it.

Of course, I couldn't eat red meat when I was pregnant- the smell made me nauseous, so guess who had to eat all that meat himself?

Using an ax on the moose reminds me of the movie Animal House where John Belusi, et. al. left a dead horse in the Dean's office and the only way they were able to remove it was to cut it up with a chain saw.


ROTFL!

WELCOME TO THE BOARD MILEYCAT!!!! Please always feel free to post your own ideas and perspective on life. That is what makes this board so great, because we all have similiar ideas or extremely different one's. It's your choice what to take and what to leave and no one is offended. :) This truly is a healing place. I truly believe it has helped me from wanting to scream through the neighborhoods naked and chanting odd tribal languages.
