I can’t afford the rent where I’m living, and my house is below what the market is asking right now, because it’s a fixer-upper that’s not being fixed. I’m poking around looking for alternatives and answers, and stumbled onto Single Mom, a wonderful site with tons of information for moms trying to make a whole […]
I’m back to full-time craziness. Not a moment to breathe, let alone do laundry go grocery shopping take the kid to TKD read a book watch a movie clean the house…
What? You want DINNER?
Surely you jest.
Luckily, our local foodie channel is pointing the way to a free cookbook! Single mothers rejoice, there is inspiration […]
I think about adopting a child, from time to time. My kid really should be one of five (he’s lobbying for one of fifteen, but even Mother Theresa wouldn’t be able to handle that insanity!), and I feel bad that he’s an only child. I don’t have any idea of how to even begin to […]
There’s a book on my bedside table that I’m dying to delve into, called “Choosing Single Motherhood: The Thinking Woman’s Guide” by Mikki Morrisette. Ms. Morrisette chose motherhood twice, with the same donor father, as a single woman. Along the way she put together a tool kit for other women who might be considering this […]
When my marriage fell apart, and I spent such desperate and breathless nights alone in the guest bedroom, my mind spinning a million miles a minute, veering wildly from denial to fury to utter despair… I found a beautiful, handbound book I’d carried with me from home to home, from one continent to a place […]
There has been an influx of new and bright and wonderful women recently, so I thought I’d take a second before running out to help a friend with stubborn radiators to say HELLO!
This place is as good as you make it. Explore the tags to the right, suggest other blogs I should list in the […]

Spidering along on her blog brings us to Freepeats, an […]
I am secretly very proud of my son, usually. It doesn’t help that today, I forgot my cell at the new office (yay, new office!) and when I took the KoE back with me to pick it up, my compatriot on the business development side of things waited til my son’s back was turned […]
It’s time for a rant. I don’t rant very often, do I? I hope I don’t whine and complain often, really, I hope I don’t…
but still.
I’m sick of paying 100% of the rent on 50% (or less, because let’s face it, women still make less than men) of the total income ‘whole’ families enjoy
I’m tired […]
Friday morning, riding the public bus to school, the King of Everything turned to me and asked, “Did you know, people with white skin are white people, and people with brown skin are black people?”
My blood ran a little cold. “Yes, sweets, I knew that. But I didn’t think you did.”
He leaned across me […]
