dating

I get up at 6.30- 7am, Let Max have a play on the floor while i sort out his breakfast and put some lunch together for him.

I feed him his weetbix then leave him with toast and bottle while i fluff around and get myself sorted (he is still in a highchair)

I pack most of his daycare bag the night before, i.e spare clothes etc.

I have a shower the night before, there is no way i would be able to have a shower in the morning. if i did i would have to get up before he wakes up!

Once you have done it for a week or two you will be in a good routine and wont even have to think about it

I wonder if my daycare will do that....I NEED a shower in the morning, or I just don't function properly, plus I look like someone who has stuck their finger in a power socket...

I have two new date next week one is coffe and one is dinner am excited

I am right into long distance/marathon running and triathlon (have done ironman) and I wanted someone who understood why I liked those things as its a large part of who I am. - someone who was open to the idea of having kids together. - someone who understood my DD will always come first. - a man who had a good relationship with his family and understood how important mine is to me. And I am so lucky I found him Its not all roses though, its hard being in a relationship with someone who doesn't have kids of his own.

Shouldn't have said that last part - we broke up yesterday Hopefully there is someone else out there for me when I'm ready again.

I was a single mum for 5 years and despite my daughter trying to hook me up with guys from the park with promises of muffins (very quickly,went to a park,guy was there,C asked if he was her friend,he said yes,then she asked if he was my friend,he said "um,ok" she said,"good!you can be my mummies SPECIAL friend,shes very pretty and will make muffins for you" It was very embarrassing)

ANYWAY,I just wanted to share my story.
5 and a bit years ago,I was hanging out with a guy I knew from back when I was 16 and he had a flatmate who I thought was a pretty cool guy cos he shared my love for Harry Potter books,anyway,the guy I was originally hanging out with and I had a falling out and his flatmate took my side and started hanging out with me more,just as friends though,and I thought he was really great,as a friend though and nothing more,he wasn't my type physically but he was funny and kind and I enjoyed spending time with him.
Anyway,one night,...I was,erm,horny is the only way to put it,and I wanted to see if he would kiss me cos I didn't know what his deal was,if he was gay,or not interested or what,and after an hour of sitting through Jeepers Creepers,he finally kissed me.
And that was it,we were a couple and I knew that it would be forever,dont' know why I thought that,but I did,I especially thought that after he bought me GHDs....
I didn't introduce C to him till we'd been together a month and he was certain he was in it for the long haul.
He won my respect by not being afraid to be firm with her in case I got upset,he was firm,but fair with her,after about 9months she started calling him daddy (confusing cos she is in contact with her biological dad but anyway) and he was ok with it,so that was that.
Fast forward 5 and a bit years down the track and he is still my best friend and my husband and the father of my youngest two babies,and "dad" to all three kids and despite my earlier opinions that he wasn't brown eyed and brown haired like the guys I would usually go for,I think his olive skin and green eyes are beautiful ...so happy endings can happen,I never thought I would find anyone that would take on a child as well...but good guys do exist out there.

.... oh and did i mention hes been playing guitar for over 11years and sings and writes his own songs .

He sounds really nice julz.

I'm with you james, dating sucks I met a really nice guy and had what I thought was a really nice date with him on Monday, turns out he didn't think quite the same way. Oh well onwards and upwards I guess.

My ex came over and hung out with DS and I for the afternoon, does that count as a date?

^ LOL

I think the only male non family member I have spoken to lately is the farm worker and he is really odd and doesnt speak much. Oh well I really cant be bothered dating right now, I got far too much on my plate without throwing a silly man into it!
