Its sunday......

It seems that Sunday mornings are for watching TV and thinking about all the fun things I should be doing with my life...... I like going on adventures. This morning we are toying with a car boot sale..... I have a new lodger moving in and the Loft is full of stuff I dont want to give away.

My son wants to watch Citv.... So I will go and have a cup of tea and a sneaky fag in the garden. thats the great thing about not having a man around you can do things like that first thing in the morning and their is no moaning about disgusting habits!

No dates lined up this weekend! As for Dave the estate agent, well he called round many times (viewings) and asked me lots of questions about myself, what do I do for fun? I looked at him stunned, what am I supposed to say to that... er have a cup of tea and a sneaky fag!.... although i could have told him that I went out with my very best friend a couple of weeks ago, she lives in The East end in a very cool loft apartment with her boyfriend its all bands and graphic designers. Her next door neighbour is a DJ for Ministry of sound and had decided to have a night at home. 6 hours later I was on the dance floor dancing to house tunes in a party for about 500 people. It was great I threw up and everything! Seriously it was great fun I really let my hair down and had a great time talking to weird people and dancing.
So I told him I went riding at the local riding school..... So now he thinks ohh mega Posh.
He told me he used to be a professional footballer.... ah that will explain why he is so fit, that photo of him half naked on Facebook ;0.

Its friday night... and I let my son sleep in my bed again!

I am worried that my son is becoming my new man..... he actually prompted me to take the bins out the other morning and said he could not do it as he is too small. Hmmmm and now after a bout of illness he wants to sleep in my bed every night!

Which I admit is quite nice having someone warm in the bed next to me.... No darling you cant sleep in my bed what if I get a boyfriend?' He replied ' you wont ever get a boyfriend mummy'.

This of course is absolute rubbish! since I have split up with his father I have had several boyfriends he has only met 3 of them, and only one has been significant in his life.


It just go's against all my principles of parenting. what happens when I do get a boyf and my son is then hoiked out of my bed to make way for a man?

So the conclusion is we are only human and all need a bit of comfort in the night, and men really do like to take the bins out. That was not nuture.

Its the weekend...... I blew it..... the date that is....

took my house off the market, as my lovely son finally got a place at school. Had to go in and pick up the keys, dressed v nicely.... walked straight into hot estate agent... I was v flustered, Ignored him completely ha! Yeah very wise..... any way he seemed very pleased that I was taking the house off the market...... picked up the keys. Left happy! x

Then I sent him a text: Hope to see you before march! x
Reply: I hope so too, good thing is we no longer have a professional relationship so we can have some fun! Do you want to go for a coffee sometime? xx
Me: Absolutely sounds great!
Him: I am around tom if you fancy meeting up xx

Needless to say we have friends in common.......... he has a girlfriend a long term one! Oh dear.

Men Honestly!

The world of blogs

Hi all, Loving this blog thing! its sooooo cool.......

Anyway.... went for a run today am feeling on top of the world! Its the weekend and I have my son all to myself for 2 whole days.

However, my sister is coming over later and we are going to have a family tea. She has 2 children with two different fathers, not what we imagined when we were younger..... well all we could imagine when we were younger was 'where are we going tonight?' and 'can I borrow that top?' we were very wild in our twenties..... clubbing, and boys mainly. I grew up in Ladbroke Grove and Kensington, my mother had absolutely no control over me from the age of 14, not many ground rules. I left home at 15. That's not true she threw me out when she started the 12 steps!

Dating today.....

I put my house up for sale, mainly because i managed to mess up my sons application for school, so In a fit of 'oh god I'm not perfect' I decided to move to Henley on Thames and try to be perfect elsewhere.
All going well and then after many viewings, he turned up we will call him Dave. he seemed very pleased with himself... lovely Beautiful he kept saying. not bad looking had a sort of 1930's look about him... a spiv as my grandad would say. We had a laugh etc... kept asking me about my status... fancies himself a bit here I thought, still I knew he fancied me, most men do when they first meet me..... Conceited but true. Anyway got a text later.... Nice to meet you today dave@estateagents x Ohh la la. Bingo.
I love being right..... flattered hmmm hell yeh! previous boyfriend/date had been in touch and we had a date lined up Lets call him John, so thought lets see what happens here then..........

Dating the gammamummy way

This is Gamma mummy blog...... a blog dedicated to a single mother and her dating disasters!
Or not possibly.

My friends all say that I am a commitment phobe........ I'm not sure about that. ho ho ho.

Anyway, what happened to meeting someone down the pub, snogging them and assuming your together and well over time you just are?

these days it s all dating.... catch him and keep him, the player, if we keep reading these books no one is ever going to get together! these days it all facebook up dates and games.....

Its true i am a single mother, I made that choice when i realised that i would have to spend my life with the same man.... he was not that great in bed.. the inevitable happened and he found some one who he clicked with. bless thay are married now, so true love is out there? I never asked about their there sex life, I just assumed she hasn't had much of it and is quite happy with 10 minutes.

I digress this blog is about dating, modern life for a single mother trying to find love.
