The Best of the Single Parent Blogosphere

by mssinglemama on August 6, 2008

Because we’re single parents and we don’t have time to read a million blogs every week I use this post to highlight my favorites and let you highlight yours … DON’T BE SHY. Shameless self-promotion is strongly encouraged.

This week’s personal favorites:

Incredulous Relief – Kristin (Better Now)

The relief? Because she’s alive. You’ll be biting your nails in fear when you read Kristen’s two posts about a romantic vacation gone bad, very bad… damn men. Sorry. I promise I’m not a man-hater. This week has just been filled with shocking stories like this one

It takes longer to un-do a marriage than it does to grow a human beingSassafrass

This week I discovered Sassafrass, a sassy single mama in Chicago. Check out her post reflecting on her divorce which is now finally, final (we all know how that feels) and her four-year-old son’s quick adaptation to their new life. 

I have been busier than usual this week, so please – leave me links to your best post…

Oh! And he’s not a single parent – but our favorite commenter, Jon B., needs some advice from us on his relationship with a single mom. Help him out here.

Pisces and Mommy – THANK YOU! Both excellent.

Single Mommy’s post is about a 12-step divorce program she’s in. HILARIOUS and very useful.

Pisces Hanna explores rainy Colorado afternoons and evil bosses who treat single moms like crap (literally).

And the rest of YOU! – I’ve been reading your blogs tonight and you’re all being incredibly bashful – leave the links. There’s some good stuff out there. I put this post up b/c I’m lazy – PLEASE help me and give me some links.

And if you have just read an awesome blog post (no matter what the topic) – if it touched you, leave the link.

P.S. My blogroll is now on the link page up at the top of the website. If you’re a single parent blogger and want to be added, send me the link. Free love kiddies and now I just have an entire page for it (more room that way). : )

I am on a single parent blog man hunt. Found 3 new ones today!!! And this is officially the longest comment I’ve ever written.

I just came across your blog from another blog that I was on. I’m always looking for other single mom blogs to read. I’ve added you to my RSS reader & can’t wait to come back when I can spend a lot more time here looking around.

As for shameless self-promotion. I’ve recently wrote two blog posts that I was pretty proud of myself for:
