I have absolutely nothing important to say
I’m burned out. I’m burned out at work, I’m uninteresting here at SoloMother. I’m just wading through the mire, trying to get through these difficult learning times to solid ground. If you’re just joining us here, if you’re newly single, newly mothered, or considering the alternative to an unhappy marriage, take heart. It’s difficult. It’s not easy. But there are moments in each day that make the struggle all worth it, whether it’s a crass fart joke from your eight year old or an unexpected kiss from your teenager… if you make your choices for the best possible reasons, you’ll be ok.
We had a picnic dinner in the park tonight. He’s so bright. So beautiful to me. So inquisitive and kind and scary smart. I can sit on my picnic blanket and watch him be. What more could I possibly need?
And so I give you something completely unrelated, but something that will make you smile, nonetheless. Be safe. Love with a whole heart, and love as thou wilt. This life is too short to be hurt or angry for very long.

Christopher Walken cutting loose - you couldn’t have picked a better vid, Christina!
Thinking about you over here a gazillion miles away, and wishing you the very very best.

Sounds like you need some time to yourself so that you can unwind and do things you that you enjoy. If you want to find a good baby sitter, to give you some free time I suggest you join http://www.mynannycalledinsick.com. I recently joined this website and it makes it alot easier to find a nanny. Also you can try some relaxation/breathing excercises when you can’t find time to get away.

Rory, I love that video, and it always cheers me up. I’m still here at work, and will be for some time more. Sigh. And then I get to clean my room.

Rachel, my mother took the kid on an adventure all this week and I’m just working late. No one to play with, alas.
