Single Parent Travel

This year is a big one for me!  I recently celebrated my 2nd 25th birthday and I feel fantastic. While the economy has everyone concerned, I am thankful that I can still put food on the table and a roof over the heads of my kids!  But not for long. You see, my son is [...]

Just a quick update that we are in the process of moving our office to a new location literally down the street.  With that move comes the hassles of moving technology and equipment. While we hope to not have any interruption of service, with Comcast and Verizon, you never know.  The service is scheduled to [...]

Well, OK so it is not really “beer’ pong, but my 14 year old was at a friend’s house over the long weekend and she was telling me how she and her friend soundly kicked the collective butts of two other friends in “soda pong.” OK, it is not beer and at 14 that is [...]

Last month, we ventured up to the Rocking Horse Ranch for a weekend full of riding, hiking, wrangling, eating, and generally having a great time for the single parents and their kids!

I am willing to go on record saying that as my kids get older, all of their activities and friends tend to take away from the “family” aspect of our family.  That is not to say that we aren’t always there for each other under all circumstances, but it just seems more difficult to be [...]

Well, we are back from the ranch again. It has taken me a bit to get caught up with a seemingly endless pile of paperwork, but we are back, we had a great time, and some fantastic weather to boot! Each year, the Rocking Horse Ranch never fails to disappoint and this time was no [...]

I sit here stunned at the news coming from Penn State University over the past few days.  With each day the scandal grows and more people become involved. It seems that everyone (at least initially) is working to cover their collective butts. I have my own opinions on this and I will keep them to [...]

We have several single parents who are from outside the US who are bringing their children into the states to live and many parents who are working outside of the US in a foreign land with their children.  Language is always a barrier. While you decide to settle in a foreign country, you are already [...]
