The Single Life

Just want to say a friendly hello...

19 years ago

I'm kinda new to this whole talking to people on the internet but I just wanted to say hi to everyone. I'm just looking for some conversation seeing as that area of my life is lacking at the moment. (single mom with an almost 1 year old at home) I am also looking for someone to talk to with knowlege of having a special needs child at home.

Hello! :-)

just so you know, this is a slow moving forum, so you may be a bit disappointed.

Good luck with your sweet angel, I have no experience or knowledge to share with you in that area.

How long have you been single? ...probably not long with such a young one.

Hi!

My kids are all grown now but I might be able to offer some help with a special needs child. My third child, a boy, was born with multiple handicaps and that is a very difficult situation to handle and you definitely need all the support you can find, hopefully in your locale.
"Special Needs" is a very broad term so I'm not sure what the nature of your baby's condition is so if you care to elaborate a little, I might be able to help.

It's a long, hard road but oddly enough, eventually rewarding, though that's difficult to even imagine when you're first dealt that blow, and being single certainly compounds the problem. I really feel for you. If you would like to discuss this further off this forum, let me know and I'll give you my email address.

God Bless,

S.A. Rose

Yes, for me its been 11 years, where has time gone to? Yes Trudi we still look good, LOL, my photo on f/b was taken last year with hubby, son, daughter in law, and dl's mom and her boyfriend while we were on a cruise. I went blonde for a year (and yes its true blondes do have more fun, LOL) we had a great time on that cruise too!! I love watching the newbies that come here yearly, and can't believe that WS works, and once they realize how simple it is, and then they stay around and help the others, like all of us did.

Hi Julie, I'm a pretty new arrival too, and never really introduced myself- so hi everybody! I've been fairly active in the hydrangea forum, but not really anywhere else. It's awesome to have access to such great local gardening knowledge, which can be hard to come by online. I split my time between my home in Decatur and nursery in Palmetto- it's great to meet some neighbors! Porter
