Raleigh, NC....have lived in Raleigh 9 years and before that the Outer Banks of NC. Love being only 3 hours from the beach!!
I am 38, have a DD who's 14. We have an amazing Jack Russell Terrior (Spiff) and a fat/happy cat (Sebastian).
I've just recently changed careers. I was the Director of Insuarnce & Billing for a group of Pediatric offices and have decided not to pass up an opportunity to work for a medical software company!
For a few years now I've "subscribed" to certain articles on iVillage, but just in the last 2 days have I become a member. I didn't realize there were message boards...they're fantastic! This is so much fun!!
I've been a single mom since day one. Wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy...but I wouldn't trade one second of it either. The first 10 years I dedicated entirely to my son. My family will tell you they were worried, that I'd lost "me" in there somewhere, and I did. When my little guy turned 10 I decided that I needed to focus on me a little. In that 10 years I'd gained nearly 40 pounds...so that was the first area of improvement. I bought a treadmill and as cliche as it sounds diet and exercise seemed to work. I've dropped all but 10 pounds. I feel great, it's incredible what it does for one's self-esteem.
It was weird, to say the least, getting back out there. What I once called a fun night out was now this world that I no longer belonged. I tried the bar thing, and while most of my girlfriends are married the evening out took on a different meaning. I LOVE to go dancing and that was fun for a while...but ya know what, it's the SAME game only the boys are...well....young enough to be my son!!! YIKES It's a slow process, I know, and for now the occasional night out is fun. I'm not sure where to really go to meet the men more my age. So if anyone has some suggestions, I'd love to hear them. I'm a mom first, but I do still like to let my hair down once in a while!!
