To tell, or Not to tell...that is the question...

My first Blog on this site was me asking advice about having an ex who is a drug addict, so this next question will probably come as no surprise...My ex has landed himself in Jail and I dont know if I should tell my girls...First off, he's in for 6 various counts of violence, guns, and drugs...So that's pretty big.. But, surprisingly he only recieved a 2 month sentence....Do I let my girls find out on their own...(they're 7 and 4) ..eventually this Will come to their attention..should they hear… Continue

Nice guys vs Bad boys...

So I've been doing some thinking, even research, if you will on this topic... My ex (the father of my girls) is the typical Bad Boy..after we got married and had kids I was able to 'tame' most of his bad ways..but obviously not enough - hence our divorce..lol. SO, now here I find myself back in the dating world again, and I dont want to make the same mistake again... so I've dated some Nice guys..but I feel that they lack the one thing the Bad boys I've dated Had...Passion! I dont want to genera… Continue

Being a Single Parent, when your ex is an addict....

Im not one to really talk about my personal life so openly, but I joined this site about three weeks ago, to see what other Single Parents are talking about...I've found alot of interesting stuff, but I still feel just as alone in my situation as I did before joining...Im a Single mom of two beautiful little girls, 7 & 4 ...Im going through a divorce, and since the breakup my Ex has turned into a full time drug addict.. It adds SO much more pressure to my life when I dont have that other par… Continue

Thanks for adding me!! I saw we had some definite similarities when I was reading your blogs. If you ever want to talk...I am just down the road. Your youngest and my son are about the same age too.

Thanks for the comment Deidra. Yes I have had some "interesting" stories along the way to share... some more that I haven't blogged yet are even more 'alarming.'

Anyway... I did want to commend you for your strength in dealing with you have with your ex making bad choices. At least your girls can look to you for a positive influence, and prayerfully I hope things change for their dad.

Nice family...such pretty girls! I love your city too. I spend a few weeks in Vancouver last summer. What a beautiful place! I cant remember the name, but I walked on a really high, narrow suspension bridge while I was there.. It was kinda scary....didn't feel real sturdy. Do you know it?

Your girls are cute, what kind of weather do you get up North? Much of a Summer? Played baseball up there in B.C. it was beautiful, somday I want to retire up there, it is so beautiful and clean. I'm just affraid of all the crap Americans get for their accent, I'll have to get some speech lessons from you. I went to a couple places up there, but my favorite was Kelowna, I hear it was founded by gangsters/hells angels. Is there any truth to that or is it b.s.?
Take Care,
JB

So glad you like the BJoel song. You can "steal" it from my page by going back to my page, selecting the song, then press the "add to my page" button. Easy! You can steal many songs on here! Makes you look at pages in a whole new way! BC is beautiful. I used to be a tour director for Holland America and lead bus tours from Seattle, through the rockies and back to Vancouver to the ship. Wonderful job! That was 15 years ago in college. God. Time goes so fast! Welcome to iHeart! I hope you love it here. I sure do!
