Don’t think of this as good-bye.
Well, okay, maybe a little.
Friends, after months of periodically mulling things over, noodling, waffling, and otherwise staring into space for extended periods of time I’ve decided it’s time to end my run here at One-Woman Show. For over two years I’ve shared my tales of juggling life, laundry and love, and blogging [...]

Many of my friends (including some of my best single parent pals and readers) have asked how I’m handling this whole getting remarried situation. Well, I’m so glad you asked. Or that some of you asked.
I swear someone asked me…or did I imagine it?
Never mind – I’m a-gonna tell you anyway in this month’s Dinner for [...]

The other night we were driving over to my parents for dinner and T-Rex said to his sister, “Hey, Drama Girl, is my nose bleeding?”
She responded that no, his nose wasn’t bleeding.
I asked him why he thought his nose was bleeding — he’s had one nose bleed that I can recall in his 7 years [...]

First, let me say a big Thank You! for your comments about my engagement news (for the full effect, start with Part I) — it was so nice to get the “thumbs up” from everyone. But seeing I’ve already jumped out of a plane and am now jumping for joy I better figure out what I [...]

I know I promised months ago to write about how I met FlyBoy, and today, which marks 8 months together, seems like as good a time as any. It’s not exactly that I was afraid of jinxing anything…I just was really enjoying our developing relationship in private.
And, okay, I admit it — I was a [...]

It’s funny, this time of year. There are so many jewelry, cards and flowers commercials (plus new horror movies — and I don’t mean reality TV shows), but I never think of this as a season for new love songs. Maybe it’s just escaped me, but it got me thinking about how love songs have [...]

With the terrific and terrifying “V Day” upon us later this week (and you can take your pick as to which category it falls into), I thought it appropriate to highlight the book I just finished reading: Manslations: Decoding the Secret Language of Men. Manslations is written by none other than fellow blogger/comedian/actor and all [...]

Well, here we are only 2 days from Christmas. It’s been a whirlwind as usual, but I’m finally winding down as my kids are winding up in anticipation of Santa’s arrival. (Thankfully, I got another year with my daughter believing after the close call last December.)
FlyBoy and I also just celebrated 6 months together! It [...]

Ah, what a Friday night.
First, I am reminded why I took myself off of Match.com at the beginning of the year, right around the time I met Coach. I’m not saying I’d never-ever-ever do it again, because God knows it’s hard enough to meet people and I’ve met some interesting and normal people that way, [...]

[Social Networking - Take Two]
Well, I asked for it. I’m searchable now on MyWTF, all right — and getting some interesting friend requests. Hmmm. I suppose I should be flattered, but when a guy with only symbols, no letters, in his screen name contacts me, or a married guy emails me “your hot!!!!!!!!!“ I’m just [...]
