Just got finished working out and OMG!!!!!!!!!! I fee great and all but damn!
I have been doing really good with cardio. I have been on nothing but cardio for a few weeks now and it seems to be doing the trick. Things are changing and my energy levels are way up.

My kids are having difficulties going to bed.. we are supposed to be "practicing" because school starts this week and its just not working out. Tomorrow night, bed at 9:00!!!
----------------------------

Had a semi- deep chat with a friend tonight about being a single parent and living life. They dont have kids so they feel (looking in from the outside) that life is at a standstill once you have kids.
Well, I dont agree. After giving birth to my 2nd daughter, I realized that I was not dead, I was not ready to be a "home room mother" I am still young and there are things I want to accomplish in life. I am the type of person who will ever settle for the "go to work, come home and my life is my man and kids"... This is a given, I will always take care of my family first, but I will not stop doing the things that make me happy just for the sake of having someone around, and I wouldnt expect a man to do that either. I have no desire to be in a "relationship rut" where the highlight of your day is whats on TV.
I have never been into that, and never will. But I know there are people who LOVE that, and that makes them happy, just not me.
So, I dont agree with my friend at all. Life is not over once you have kids, not at all. You can still be sexy, seductive, adventerous, spontaneous and all that, you just have to be more creative and clever about it.I can see the point looking in on the situation, and how I dont go out all the time with them all the time, but ya know what? I dont like going out all the time! lol Why is that hard to understand? The bar scene is lame, drunks disgust me and I have no desire to have to deal with men approaching me at the bar and I see "STD" on their foreheads.

Being tied down, nah, I dont feel like it at all. Kids being baggage? Well, if any man thinks of someones children as baggage then he is not for me. Now if I had 5 kids, by all different daddy's, I was on welfare and my life was based off food stamps & the DHS then yes, I would consider that to be baggage, and if I were a guy, I would be hesitant.
So, pretty much some singles without children feel that their friends with kids are missing out on life? Well, you tell me that im missing out when your kids make you breakfast in the morning, super strong coffee and slightly burnt toast, served in bed with sweet good morning momma kisses and hugs. Im not missing out on anything!!!
