A Long time....

[Kim In NS]

ago I belonged to a group of single parents... I'm not sure if I've found
that group at all but I am really hoping that I have!

I made a very good friend of a man by the name of Peter who was a fantastick
MarOOn and there there was Matt and a few others... I had my bell ringing
friend, and various others... I would love to catch up on the last couple of
years in everyone's lives...

Dennis I'm thinking you are the gent from across the water who took up
Peter's torch...

Please let me know if I've found my old haunt again after such a long time
of being away

No! What happened? Didi is married Myles? I remember they had a big get
together with the 'crew' at thier place and the pictures were fantastic and
I was very envious... I remember Joelle and Yes Miss Vicky I even remember
you as well... :) The names I've been seeing in other conversations verified
that Yes I have indeed the right group... I remember when Joelle first
joined... It feels like I've had amnesia and memories are slow in coming
back to me but they are trickling in... Actually feels like I've been
underwater for a long time and I'm finally reaching the surface... Silly I
know but hey there it is...

Well Dennis as frieghtening as it sounds I've been living life... I dusted
off my bruised self, got a wee bit of an education, got myself a part time
job while I was educating myself, started building up that low self esteem
as well as a few well placed walls... I went out into the real world head
long thinking I was ready... LOL I was ready for the full time job and the
responsiblities that came with that... I thought I was ready for a more
personal relationship -- I wasn't -- I went back behind my walls again and
once more made a move in my career levels which cause a bit of an upheaval
as the children and I moved half an hour away from 'home'... I have been
with the same corportation for about 6 months now and loving the new job...
Getting my ducks in a row mentally... Finding out what is important to me
and getting the priorities organized *giggle* imagine all that in 5 years
with the usual bumps, lumps and giggles... Through all of this I have helped
my baby boy go through some major personal changes inside and outside (do
you know how hard it is to teach a boy how to SHAVE something besides his
LEGS?); I think I've done a darned good job with him, he has turned into a
very loving young man who still at times becomes my little boy when he and
his sister fight *grin* I have also had the pleasure (dubious I admit) of
watching my little blonde tomboy bombshell slowly turn into a very self
confident teenager who doesn't take crap off anyone yet still wants to wear
the pretty bra's LOL she's a HOOT! So in a nutshell I've been living
Dennis, sometimes it's been good and sometimes it's been bad... But Like
everyone here... I've survived to tell the tale *grin* And the tales I could
tell ;)

So Sir Dennis... Do you remember me? LOL At one point I had to ask (very
privately) some of the males of this group that I trusted about an issue
with shaving cream and my son... How could you ever forget that?

Kimmy Kimmy Kimmy!!!!
How's it going, eh? 'Member me? I'm in Ontario, just outside of our fine
Nation's capital, and have one son. He's 9 now!
I remember you, and pondered on where you may have went. Specially after
the recent storms that hit the east coast.

So glad to hear that things are, well, life as we know it! Same here, the
boy is doing the same as always, BUT has been absolutely amazing with
respect to the level of responsibility he's maintained in looking after our
now 4 month old black lab puppy. She's been a great addition to the family.
Oh, and speaking of additions to the family.........are you sitting?

Break open the champagne (Keiths' will do).

I'm getting married.............!!!!!!!!!!!

Lisa that's great, congratulations! We're not far from you but on the
other side of the lake ... Need a sitter for your honeymoon? :-) We'll
probably get to Canada this year though to visit so I'll be asking you
about the local tourist traps.

Hey Laura!! Thanks for the congrats, and the offer too! These days, my son
refers to the impending honeymoon as "that trip you guys are taking without
me" Tough luck little one :).

When you're planning your visit,,,,,don't come yet!! It's been frickin cold!
Good for the canal, as it hasn't opened yet, but I'm not a winter person :(.
You will love the city,,,trust me! I'll be sure to give you the a list of
must see and run away from things to do. Which bridge would you cross to
get across the border?

Yeah that is one of the really useful aspects to this group. The fathers can
help out the mothers with "boy" issues and vica-versa.

A measure of liquid, still used for the size of a beer barrel.

True enough Dennis... Although... After that particular situation and a
couple of doctors appointments I think I'm pretty good at answering the boy
questions... The one thing that I ended up having to teach him was how to
shave LOL now THAT was funny... Found out it's easier to just purchase a
good electric razor and call it a day LOL.... Saved on the shaving cream as
well ;)

This sounds vaguely familiar. Maybe if I sleep on it.

Could that singer be me? Brianne? Ms. B? Just curious. I've been around
for ages (though busy and quiet as of late) I'm currently keeping the FAQ
since, at the time, there was a huge fight about it and who should do it.
Figured the newly married lady would be the safest (me). Hard to believe I
just celebrated my 3 year anniversary!

If I don't remember you Kim, I apologize. I had a really bad car accident
18 months ago and hit my head pretty hard.

Glad to see you though!!

hugs,

Good question. I just looked on Yahoo and it looks as though 81
north/137 north is most direct. We're probably going to go to Toronto
first, before the winter is out, via Niagara Falls. The falls are
supposed to be way cool in winter, with the mist freezing throughout.
We've been looking at flights to Ireland too -- less than $100 RT to
Shannon or Dublin. A long weekend roadtrip to NYC would be more
expensive!

How about an assp outing? (no, not who is gay), I mean a team trip to
Ireland.
Those prices are for nothing!

Er, sorry, turns out those were for one-way. Grrrr. Who takes one-way
flights anyway? So double that, times a family of four, and we've very
quickly blown the travel budget. Maybe next year.

I wonder how much it would cost for you and Dolores and three boys to
fly here though... I bet they'd love the two feet of snow we've got
outside!

YES YES YES IT IS YOU!!! lol lololol ou were doing a CD and planning the
wedding and everything was just roses for you and I'm so pleased everything
is working out fabulously!!

Congrats on the anniversary... and I have a feeling I know who created the
fuss about the FAQ... As I recall there were issues on that right after
Peter passed on (you know I still can't get over that -- I think THAT is
what kicked my bottom into gear and got me living again)

I'm sorry to hear about your accident... I really wasn't all that memorable
I mainly watched... Tried for some light humor (albeit warped at times)...
In general I really didn't add a lot to the group but I really really gained
alot from existing with you all ;)

Yep, that is pretty much how I got it. The tribute dispute of 2000/2001.
Sigh. I'm not as active lately, but that's only because my job keeps me
busy, and my headaches keep me off the computer at night.
