Brilliant, I’ve already lost 1.5 Kg since last Thursday, only 2.5 (or ideally 4.5) to go in the next 2 weeks.. 🙂

I’ve upgraded to the new wordpress 2.0, the new back end is somewhat sexy..:D very much an improvement on the old 1.5.. 🙂 Very pleased.. 🙂 It appears that things in general are a lot easier to format and use.. 🙂 I’ll think about putting in some usefull plug ins (such as a blogroll) soon..

New Goal, I’d like to get one of these in 2 years time:

Oooh.. I can actually see that pic in the preview window.. neat!! anyway, They are around 50k now, so should be able to pick one up for around 40 in 2 years time.. now just to hurry up and finish the current car!!! 😐

A friend of mine (hey Pam) was conversing to me about the situation that many women find themselves in these days, does having children mark a woman as “damaged goods”?
Personally I don’t believe it does, however it does pose a problem in that many men are afraid of these women for several reasons (most of which are pre-conceptions of course, however they are things that a man does have to take into account when posed with this conundrum).

  • A woman with a child may be quicker to “settle down” then a woman without one
  • The role the father of the child will play – he is somewhat of a player in this game too and needs to be considered
  • The overall temperment of the child
  • Any extra financial stress that the child may present

A man considering entering a relationship with a woman who has a child is effectively entering into a relationship of some sort with at least 2 extra people, a situation that does need extra thought and effort and one that a lot of guys would rather just not deal with. In many cases this would make it harder on many great women with children to find partners.

    Hi. I haven’t heard from you in a while.

    About the child issue: I myself was a single mom when I met my boyfriend, and he had no issues whatsoever about it, and I actually thought that was strange. He was 35 at the time, so he figured that most women usually have children by that age (although I’m 7 years younger than him).

    One thing that was hard for him was the age of my daughter when we met (she was 2 1/2). He kept expecting her to do things, understand things, have the temperment of a much older child. Now, a year and a half later, he gets her.

    Interesting topic.
