    Just Saying No to Post-Divorce Dating

    October 2, 2014 / No Comments

    Recently I was wondering if I’m an anomaly because I don’t want to date.  It seems that I’m in the minority as most of other divorced individuals I meet seem to focus on finding that next relationship.

    How to Cope Through Post-Divorce Interactions With the Ex: When We Pretend That They’re Dead…

    Step-Mothers Get No Respect: Reflections on the Major Suck that is Step-Parenting

    October 1, 2014 / No Comments

    No one ever gives step-parents any props. For the most part, being a step-parent is either stigmatized or shrouded in mystery, never idolized. I experienced both the stigma and the misunderstandings. Even now, a year after I’ve relinquished the role, it still sucks that I got no respect for my tenure as someone’s step-mother.

I blog about the random ass shit going on in my life. I'm a single mom, a Navy veteran, avid reader, and coping with life post-divorce. I have two sons and five cats, so clearly, I'm a catch. I pull no punches and use salty language. Read at your own risk.
