Dating During COVID-19

By |May 19th, 2020|Categories: Blog|Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , |

Dating later in life is always full of challenges for my divorced clients. First, there is the need to get up to speed on the rules of the game if they've been out of the dating pool for over 7 years (which is the timeframe when about 50% of divorces occur.) Second, there are often logistical issues to contend with like coordinating schedules if either of you have kids from prior relationships, or commuting issues, unless you happen to live in the same zip code.  Third, there is the hurdle of finding a way to properly invest your time and money in this endeavor realizing that both are especially limited commodities for those juggling the responsibilities of raising kids while working and managing a single-parent household. Now throw a global pandemic into the mix, and you can see that dating in 2020 is not going to be easy for sure. And yet, those that are committed to finding love again will make the effort.  Like the saying goes: where there is a will, there is a way.  Various sources are reporting that online dating is quite active these days, despite COVID-19, and while stay at home orders have been in effect lots of people have availed themselves of modern technology, including via video chats and Zoom dinners to meet other [...]

Key Travel Tips During COVID-19

By |May 13th, 2020|Categories: Blog|Tags: , , , , , , , , , |

It might be hard to imagine that we are talking about resuming travel this summer while COVID-19 continues to affect over 200 countries worldwide, but sooner or later non-essential travel will resume and the industry is doing its best to prepare for that inevitability. For many, travel is an escape from reality. It’s a treat or reward after working hard for months, or a chance to commemorate a special event, like an anniversary or special birthday. Whether it is a romantic getaway, a family trip, or a chance to bond with a special group of friends, you want to make sure it all comes together without a hitch. This is why, now more than ever you really need to consider working with a travel planner, who is an experienced professional that is up to date on all the safety measures being taken at hotels around the world. Travel planners are usually paid by the hotels and other service providers, not the person traveling. You give them an idea of what you want and a budget, and they do all the research for you, then come up with some proposals. They are also there in case anything goes wrong during the trip, and can help you make alternate plans if you get stranded as a result of a blizzard or something [...]

Mother’s Day During COVID-19

By |May 10th, 2020|Categories: Blog|Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , |

It is unbelievable to think we are about to complete eight weeks with stay-at-home guidelines in effect, and quite honestly I'm just happy to say my son and I are healthy and safe. We have (1) a safe place to shelter, (2) food and (3) basic necessities (including toilet paper and paper towels for at least a few more weeks). And thankfully, since neither one of us has any symptoms, we will be able to go outside and enjoy a walk outdoors later today. Last week, we got tested for the antibodies, and for better or worse the results came back double negative: not exposed, and zero antibodies. To be honest, I was a bit shocked, thinking we had already been exposed and had the antibodies. Those results, however, have definitely made me reconsider things-- including springing for a UV phone & key sterilizer, which has now become part of our daily routine. Mother's Day as a single mom the past 15 years has always been a bit unpredictable. Some years, my ex would come through and help our son find an appropriate gift to commemorate the day. Other years, they would both flake out, with minimal acknowledgement of the day, so I learned a long time ago to just make the day special for myself. But this year, [...]
