Okay folks...here we go. I have been lurking around blogger for a while now and reading a lot. I love to read. It fills my soul when it feels empty. Well.....I figure it is time to jump into the deep end of the pool as they say and contribute a bit and share my stories as well.
Since I am new to this I will keep it relatively simple.
I am a full time Dad with Part time hours. I love my kids dearly but only get to see them as much as the Ex will allow. I want more and she is fine the way it is. My kids are great. I got three (two boys and one girl) and one has a disorder (ASD - autism spectrum disorder). Basically that means that he doesn't talk much and does not understand what we are asking of him. It is a short circuit in the understanding of communication. That is basically how that works. My other two are pretty "normal" with my little girl being quite the Princess. Everything for her is about fairy tales and if it is Pink she has GOT to have it. My other boy is just that....100% boy...gettin' dirty, playing with bugs and annoying his sister. Wish I was there for everything but if you have kids and are divorced....you know what I mean!
The other day I had to bring my kids back to the Ex. Let's just say no matter how much we may have loved eachother...we just could not live together. I think we are just like Oil and Water...ya we are both liquids but we sure do not mix well. Anyway..things are tense at times (especially when we talk about our son with ASD) because she wants him to go to some private school and I want him to stay with public schools. THey have a great one with a class just for kids like him and they are doing great! I just do not know why she feels the need to change things when he is making progress. Anyway...just another battle that seems more about who is the one who wins rather than what we are supposedly fighting about. Know what I mean?!
Anyway, I am just fresh into this whole newly single thing and have NO interest in getting back into the saddle again. Please do not use my blog to meet...but I would sure like to see where this goes as far as online friends and hear from others going thru the same thing.
Hope this is not too boring...I am not a great writer...but hey...worth trying...right?!

::looks around:: hey! Nice pad you gots here!!
I don't know how long you've been reading my stuff (I take down old posts after a fortnight) but I think you know that I've got 3 kids, all are ASD, I'm in the throes of a die-vorce and single myself. My god, man, we're brothers!!
I don't talk about my divorce all that much on my Lemon blog (I've got a private one for that), but lemmie tell you it sucks. Ever seen the movie "Zardoz" with Sean Connery? There's a line in there that is really powerful: "I loved this girl, once, Monster..."
Amazing how things can happen, ay??
Oh, and when you ARE ready to meet, there's a lot of good websites out there that will draw people more than a weblog! But burn that bridge when U come to it!!
Just stopped by to tell you that after 21 years of divorce I've never been happier. Marriage aint' all its cracked up to be and I for one ENJOY the single life.
One less egg to fry.
:-) Hang in there and keep writing. It soothes the soul!
Well, you gonna meet a bunch of good people. Hilarious,raunchy, intelligent, loving, kind, great thinkers from allllll over so sit back, spill and wait for the love and fun to hit you!
Cap'n: Well, I have been reading a variety of blogs for many moons, and have stumbled across yours a couple times. I noticed that yours do not stay on for long, but that is okay since your newest installments are always good. A divorce blog..huh...maybe I need one of those! Hehe! I am afraid there are not enough words to cover that subject!
Bluez: Thanks for the kind words! Glad to hear it! BTW...you are right about those eggs!
OL: Thank you kindly! I love talking to folks of all kinds and this seems to be a great start!
