This shit ain’t easy (a bedtime story).

July 31, 2008

Today sucked. Everything caught up with me. Working full-time, being a mom, trying to date – mix all of that with a good dose of self-doubt and you’ve got the ingredients for one grumpy mama. I’m also dead tired. Last night Benjamin kissed me good night and prounced off to my bedroom, jumped into my [...]

Lance and Kate Split!

July 30, 2008

So much for our hot Hollywood single parent couple. Kate Hudson and Lance Armstrong broke up. Sad. They were together for 3 months. Here’s an excerpt from the article in US Magazine: “There was no drama or ugliness – They just decided to end things,” a source close to the couple tells Us. “There is [...]

The Best of the Single Parent Blogosphere

July 21, 2008

Better late than never. You know the drill, but if not… Because we’re single parents and we don’t have time to read a million blogs every week I use this post every week to highlight my favorites and let you highlight yours … DON’T BE SHY. Shameless self-promotion is strongly encouraged. My personal favorites this [...]

Animal Attraction

July 10, 2008

Tonight Julie (my new single mom friend) and I are taking the kids to a singles event at our Whole Foods called Animal Attraction. You can meet a man and adopt a dog! How convenient. I won’t be adopting a dog but I will be on the look out for a cute man. Benjamin will [...]

A smudge in the plans.

July 8, 2008

There’s a giant smudge on our shots from San Francisco. It’s staring at me and I’m staring at it – wishing it away. But there it is … smudging up every one of our scenes and interviews. I’m going to make the video anyway. Smudge be damned. I haven’t screamed at the smudge, I haven’t [...]

A car full of single parents.

July 6, 2008

How often does this happen?  Morgan (Modern Single Momma), Jim (Depot Dad) and I are having such an amazing weekend! We’re on our way to downtown San Francisco to interview people about dating and dating a single mom or single dad. We just shot this little video in the car on the way into the city.  [...]

New friends = good times.

June 27, 2008

1. Julie and Zoe are on their way over. We’re headed to a music festival. Last Monday night we both went out (coincidentally our exes both have our kids on Monday nights). We were eating out when the Architect called me … and not her. I didn’t call him back and we spent most of [...]

Want men to start falling from the sky?

June 1, 2008

Forget about them Yep. To get a man’s attention you have to not want one. Funny how it works that way, but it’s true! When I started this blog I had decided to completely throw in the towel on dating. I would still date, but not actively pursue men any more, whether it be online [...]

Hollywood’s single parent couple?

May 27, 2008

Reports say Kate Hudson and Lance Armstrong are an item. They were spotted leaving a Monaco hotel room this weekend en route to a boat trip. Wouldn’t that be nice? I wonder if they brought the kids? Armstrong’s twin girls are seven and his son is nine. Hudson’s son, Ryder, is just four. I’m sure [...]

Single Mama Signing Off (for a few days)

May 16, 2008

I’m taking a few days off. From everything. I’ll be very, very busy – relaxing. Benjamin and I are headed down into the woods – to my hometown for a weekend music festival. We’re taking the Dane with us, my friend from Denmark. We dated in college and until last night hadn’t seen each other [...]
