Remember Benjamin’s E.T. doll?

Well, E.T. is now in California, riding along with a sweet guy named Josh as he raises money for the San Francisco Aids Foundation.

And he’s having so much fun. Can’t you tell?

Read the entire story on how Benjamin generously passed E.T. along here.

But, most of all, I’d love it if you could help Josh out with a donation. Even just a dollar or two would make a difference. I’m sure he’s having a wicked time riding across California with E.T. but some virtual encouragement would go a long way. Can you imagine taking off on a bike for charity? Takes a great guy to do such a thing and we single mamas love great guys… the good ones are so hard to find. Right? So help him out. Donate here.

And congratulations to Sharon for winning the Name Your Fear contest (her necklace is on the way).

All of your fears, by the way, as an outsider looking in are all conquerable. Your children will be fine! They have you. Just choose wisely in the men you date and take care of yourself – be happy, healthy, and stay busy with work and your career. All else will fall into place.

As I’m putting the final touches on Ms. Single Mama Uncensored I’m finding that in nearly every thought and in every piece there is even more I want to write. But at some point I have to stop, right? I guess I don’t want to stop though… so expect a Part II or an expanded version after this one (but I’ll be taking a huge break in between because this is obviously not easy, although incredibly exciting and fun).

In the meantime, I have popped my head up for air every once in a while and noticed that Benjamin has grown really fond of the life size E.T. doll we found for $8.50 at the thrift store.

He takes him into bed, outside to play and even sits him on the potty. E.T. was a perfectly normal alien until Murphy came home with this on his head.

He has a bad boo boo where his “you know whats” used to be, on account of being unable to stop licking the area in question.

After we took Murphy to the vet E.T. started coming down with frequent cases of the flu and I’ve actually had to practice the Heimlich on this thing. But if it all of this madness makes Benjamin smile like this, than I know I’m doing something right…

And guess who has figured out how to pose for the camera?

Watch out Ladies.

Okay. Back to work. Some things coming up soon:

• Remember the Lion? Of the Lion and the Tiger… well, even though our date didn’t pan out he is an awesome guy and on that date I told him I had met John just the day before. “But,” I said, “I could feature you on my blog as an eligible bachelor. You’re just so cute!” And very soon now — you’ll all be meeting him.
• A very exciting Ford Fiesta Movement Mission video of John Bear and I’s fashion makeovers.
• Another big Single Edition contest. You’re going to love the package I’ve put together, awesome stuff for single mamas.
