Updates Galore.

1. House Hunt

On hold because spring has sprung and I can’t bear the thought of leaving my cute downtown neighborhood with all of the coffee shops, parks, shops and men!

2. Finding a Sitter

I found one! She clicked with Benjamin right away – got down on her knees to talk to him and we spent an entire afternoon together. She’s coming over tonight to babysit, but alas, I’m sick! Of course. I’m going to have her come anyway and might just go to the coffee shop or a book store for some much needed “me” time.

3. The Firestation

I’m planning on making a trip tomorrow morning…if I feel better. Should be very interesting and I’ll report back immediately.

Pass the man blinders please.

April 24, 2008

I’m trying to avoid them but I can’t help noticing them. Lots of them. Men. They’re every where. And for some reason, doesn’t matter if Benjamin’s with me or not – they’re all checking me out. The first few times I thought it was all in my head. The blatant stares and smiles. But now…there [...]

Man wanted.

April 17, 2008

If I were to write a personals ad on Craigslist here’s what it would say.

Dear Man.

I like you. I really do. I’m just trying to figure out why I need you. So if you want me (and I’m quite a catch) you’ll have to prove your worth.

In order for me to deem you valuable you must be able to:

1. Cook

2. Clean

3. Pamper

4. Love

5. Respect

6. Trust

7. Laugh

8. Intrigue

9. Provide

and…last but not least…

10. Have a nice ass.

Sincerely,

Ms. Single Mama.

And no, I have never posted a personals ad on Craigslist.com. But I do browse and they’re out there. Look at your own risk! Most of them actually have naked pictures of guys showing off their you know whats. Ummm… yeah. That’s hot.

We’ve got a live one…

April 16, 2008

Here we go again.

Another commenter bashing us because we’re happy single parents.

Today’s live wire comment thread is coming from a particularly bitter stay-at-home mom who calls our families “broken” and also says she would never spend a millisecond away from her children to find someone to get her “jollies off on.” (I didn’t know people still used that term – “jollies.” Ha. Anyway….)

Single Mama Beauty Tip #1: Tan Towels

March 28, 2008

One of the sexiest things about single moms (for the guys) and one of the most trying (for us) is the fact that we are on top of it … beauty wise. Well, I am anyways. But it’s not easy. I barely have time to shop. And there’s nothing worse than dragging a screaming toddler [...]

Will he call? On asking men out…flat out.

February 1, 2008

The queen of single mom blogging, Rachel Sarah (Single Mom Seeking), has had quite a few very, very interesting posts this week. She was wondering if she should seek out a date for Valentine’s Day. It’s been a year of pure singleness for Rachel after a painful break up.

I suggested she ask a man out. Why not? We single moms have to take matters into our own hands and when it comes to dating – that means picking up men. Seriously – asking them out, flat out.

Good guys do exist.

January 30, 2008

One downside to dating a single mother – you get sick. Really sick. The last time I saw my boyfriend, Kris, he was his healthy, energetic, happy, nerdy self…and then this sickness hit him too. He’s been in a sleepy, feverish haze of pain ever since. That was four days ago. And he caught it from us. The day care germies must have jumped him late last week when he came over to help me watch Benjamin. Why? Because I asked him too. Why? Because I was starting to feel sick. Sigh. I feel guilty. I usually don’t feel guilty – but I can’t express to you enough the pain of this particular viral strand. It’s unreal.

Why men die before women…

October 19, 2007

A new study suggests men die before women because they are natural polygamists. Meaning, that during cave man days, polygamy was the norm – not monogamy.
