Do you remember a blog post I wrote last week about a guy from a dating site that felt he could only date me if I kept my children very separate from him? I’ve been turning that around and around in my head all week, trying to make sense of it. I have […]

It’s OK To Be On Your Own
I’m writing this from one of my many offices … aka Costa. It’s a great space for people watching/procrastinating when you’re actually meant to be working. I like to think of it as providing me with an environment to enjoy life’s rich tapestry. Or just laugh at how moronic people can be. […]
Happy Birthday to Me!

In the meantime, I’ve started (yet another) new job, one I’m actually really excited about, and I […]
Ready to Date Again?
I read a post this week by Emily at My Shitty Twenties about internet dating and it got me thinking. Having tried online dating ten years ago, as a newly single woman of forty one years old … am I going to have to turn to internet dating again? Overall, I had a pretty positive experience […]
