It went smoother than I thought - first Christmas since the divorce was popped on me this past year. The ex had our daughter this year for the holidays (we are switching up every other year) but she came over on Christmas Day and hung out for a few hours, we opened presents and ate some junk...

I'm in! With my unexpected divorce this past year I racked up a bit of cc debt and had to buy new furniture when I moved out so I'm definitely joining the club! I have about $1000 in cc debt, a $2300 loan and about $200 left on my furniture to be paid off. I also have student loans but I'm going...

There is nothing wrong with staying single. After just going thru a divorce (albeit not a messy or hostile one) I have no desire to be back in a relationship anytime soon. I have my daughter half the time and the other half I enjoy doing what I want in my own place. I'm sure at some point I...

:thumbsup2 So looking forward to cooler days. I hate summers in AL, from May until mid September it's complete hell. I hate the heat, the humidity and cornea searing bright sun. I hate getting up and leaving the house at 7 and it already feels like a sauna outside, so by the time I'm at work...

What is the weather like in December as I'll be driving up from AL. I called and they are closing the first week of December to clean the water park and plan on going the week after, the reservation person I spoke to said it was their slow time before the Christmas rush came. Also, they...

I am looking to take DD and a friend on a vacation this winter and this looks like a great place - the waterpark admission is part of the room price. Also, I had a co-worker go and they had a great time. This is going to be a 2 maybe three night trip max. I'm trying to save money if...

Once I get my dates pinned down I'll definitely post. October definitely is looking like the winner because of Halloween and Food and Wine (which I've always wanted to attend). And it look like the budget will be of the Value variety but I don't plan on spending a lot of time in the room...

I was only planning on being there for 4 days and three nights, possibly adding another day to it but not any longer than that. I just made the decision yesterday to pull the trigger and actually start planning so everything is up in the air right now. I do know that I want to stay onsite but...

Hi everyone, I'm loving this forum. I am newly divorced and was shocked to have someone welcome me back to the singles club the other day - I think my face was like this :scared1:. I've let myself get kind of bummed out recently about the whole life changing event that is divorce (just a...

Today I move into my own apartment after almost 16 years of marriage. In two hours I will be receiving some of my new furniture and this evening I will be moving the rest of my belongings from the home we have shared for the past three years. It was a house built by his great grandfather so he...

Everytime we are in Destin our tradition is to eat at The Back Porch, it's right on the beach. It does not have a deck to eat on but it's right on the beach and the windows open all around so you get that great ocean breeze. There is also a staircase that leads to the sand and there is a cool...

I should clarify...she directs most of any drama that comes up to DH and I, usually some small molehill that has been turned into a mountain, DD does not get involved if it can be helped on our side. Over the past couple of years I just learned to ignore and that has worked pretty well, we only...

I've never been that fond of her for numerous reasons and vice versa. Over the last 16 years there has been endless advice/critisism on what we were doing wrong, better ways to raise our child, we have been called bad parents, incompetent in so many ways, we are scarring DD in so many ways that...

We attend the same church so we are bound to run into her from time to time, I'm just curious to how she will react to seeing me and if we can keep it polite (I will anyway). She did pick up DD from school twice a week and kept her for about an hour until DH or I picked her up. DD used to go...

My MIL has out of the blue stated she no longer wants to have me anywhere in her life, doesn't want to speak to me, have me over to her house, ect. Just a note about MIL, extreme and out of the blue hissy fits with no reasoning behind them are her norm. Now this has been a long time coming...

I was reading the thread about getting your hair cut at a beauty school and was wondering if anyone has ever gotten their nails done at one? I would love to have gel nails put back on but can't really afford the cost at a nail salon. I would also like to get my brows done too. Any info would be...

Let's see...for some reason we bought a treadmill off QVC years ago...not sure why that seemed like such a great idea because at the time we lived in an upstairs condo and the lady below us said we sounded like elephants just walking around...why did we think a treadmill would be quieter...
