Single, Divorced, Responsible Parent By Day...Revived, Party Girl By Night?! A Personal Story »
Posted By lenseview 10 months, 2 weeks ago in FamilySmart, entertaining personal piece by a single mother -- & journalist -- who's learned it's not so hard (& it's OK) to shift from being a "responsible parent" during the week TO, when the kids are with their dad, a fun, "single", party-hearty woman on weekends. Really, it's a story on coming to terms with multiple facets of our personalities--&, in author's case, figuring out how to reconcile her view of parenting & responsibility with her legit desire to reconnect to her more "single" fun-loving...partying self. A good piece, IMO.

Hey -- always enjoyed that one. Not really a poetry maven but i've always been fascinated by Edna St. Vincent Millay. A couple big bios written about her a few years ago (supposedly Nicole Kidman bought movie rights to one of them & was going to play her). But she really was ahead of her time--a 1920s poet "rock star" almost. (Imagine a poet being a big-time celeb today. Wait, hasn't Paris Hilton or Britney Spears' sister written poems?)

nice article. i was always kind of envious of divorced friends who got to live a wild life on alternate weekends. sure it's a challenge but what a relief from the drudgery of parenting 24/7.

Not envious. But when does the craving for the party life end???Is this heavy drinking or just socializing? Does anybody grow up a little in regards to watching your lifestyle mature just a bit?
