How Hiring a Pit Bull Hurts Your Children
Dear Readers:
I hope this chapter excerpt helps explain my vagueness over what’s been happening in my life. Have a wonderful weekend! Yes, I know it’s Thursday, but I’m heading out of town.*
Make this a beautiful day! I know I will.
Robin:
I’m in the middle of a divorce that is becoming a little rough and tumble lately. I’ll spare you the details and let the lawyers hash it out.
My problem is my husband’s tendency to make requests, usually at the last minute, for changes to our parenting schedule. I usually try to go along with them but he’s being such a dick in the last few weeks in the divorce that I really don’t feel like rewarding him for bullying me.
Dear Robin:
I admit to snooping in my 15-year-old daughter’s room last week. I was worried she might be smoking pot because she seems spacey and out of it lately. I didn’t find any pot, but I did find birth control pills hidden under her mattress.
Dear Readers:
Today I pack up my computer and leave for an undisclosed location to make the final edits on my book:
Divorce by Design: How to Split Without Losing Your Mind, Your Money, or Your Kids.
My final deadline is early next week and I have an enormous amount of work in front of me. The blog will be sparse as a result until I have delivered the final pages to the powers that be.
Today I am going to share with you my Author’s Note: my explanation of why I wrote this book. I would be deeply grateful if you read this. If it resonates with you, please share and leave a comment.
Have a beautiful week.
