Last year at Christmas, staying at my son’s home was me, my ex DH and his wife, my DIL’s mom, her ex DH and his wife, DIL’s mom’s fiance, and DIL’s dad (her mom’s first ex DH). There were exes all over the place.
When ex DH’s wife’s son got married, it was similar. My ex and his wife, his wife’s ex husband and his wife, my ex and his wife, all at the same table. I guess it’s pretty strange for so many so closely tied together to be like that but we sure have some interesting conversations. It’s probably a good thing my second DH passed away or there might have been even more, although he wasn’t friendly at all with his ex…OR mine!
I used to work with a guy who was so bitter over his divorce (and this was after many years, he would not even pick up his kids for his visitation if she was there. I don’t know what’s going to happen when his two girls get married. I hope he doesn’t stay home and deny them the priviledge of him walking them down the isle. What a shame.
I guess we should start a new thread or rename this one. But, I guess it IS getting to know you…and all our exes too!
Life is just too short to waste your energy holding a grudge. Actually, I should have mentioned before (when I was on my soap box) that I meant it was important to remain friendly when there are kids involoved. If not, it really doesn’t make a whole lot of difference. Unless you’re like my neighbor who dispises her ex but loves his family. Don’t ask me about them!!!I’m so happy to hear someone else gets along with their ex. My first DH and I have remained exceptional friends (been divorced for 33 years now, 2nd DH died of cancer but wasn’t especially with the program). Anyway, I love his wife dearly and although they live in California, when they come this way to see youngest son or I go west to see oldest, we always get together. They even stay with me when they come to FL and we have gone on vacations together.
I think it’s a real shame that people can’t get past their differences of being married once it is over. Of course there are exceptions like cruelty, etc., that are just too hard to forgive and forget. I decided that we have kids together and it is so much easier all the way around, for all of us, to be civil to each other. The kids have said more than once how happy they are with this arrangement…especially on holidays. But, for it to work, you’ve got to put the bad stuff behind you. You’ve got to remember that you loved him once so there must be something good there. So, good for you Jenn.
one of the writers has a good sense of humor. I don’t want them to overdo it but it’d be nice if we could have a few more giggles like that. Right? I give kudos to Nadia for being able to deliver that line without laughing. I don’t know that I could have.
and certainly no Indiana Jones by any means but it was mildly entertaining. I thought the kids overacted for the most part and a little too much "preachy" on the part of the mother (although I love that actress). And, of course, Sean was amazing…worth watching just to see him.
I’m not sure how that could become a series but if Sean is in it, I’ll watch!
and went back to watch again. I wonder if the editor goofed. I assumed Justin must have said something to tick her off. Go figure!
she was only trying to line up an interview on the phone so she could have been in jeans and t-shirt. I thought she looked perfectly acceptable.
because I was watching something else but grabbed little glimpses during commercials. Yes, he’s certainly easy on the eyes. And wasn’t his hair much darker?
He only arranged for the interfiew for Arianna and had no idea at the time CC was going to get the promotion.
his parts back and forth. I guess he can’t decide which side to part it on. And when he first came on, didn’t he wear it combed back? Now, it comes forward. And, personally, I don’t see anything wrong with EJ’s hair. That style is very popular nowdays. Is anybody watching Jamie Oliver’s Food Revolution? Now THERE’S someone who needs something done to his hair. O-M-G!
But, seriously, if Ciera proves to become a little hellion, she certainly will be coming by it honestly. That’s how both her mother and grandmother started out so it’s probably in her genes.
That’s probably my number one peeve about this show. I’m a layman and know much more about medical issues than they do. And it’s plain ordinary things that most people with a half a brain cell would know also.
