MY PAIN IS YOUR GAIN

I'm a single father of two beautiful chidren and I live in Novato, CA. I am also the embodiment of several neurotic tendencies. But you will find that out soon enough.

I'll be writing honest blog entries about my trials and successes as a single father. Tune in to hear about my foibles and learn about all the mistakes you shouldn't make. I take the hit, you gain the knowledge.

The Blogger's Dilemma

41VBmYcemUL._AA280_

I started this blog a year ago to document the changes in my life as a single father. Before long it turned into a journal of my health issues, but now, hopefully, I’m back on track to my original plan.

From the start, I blogged with my identity exposed. Some bloggers do this and others don’t. I understand both sides to the issue. And recently, I’ve come to understand the real limitations to blogging fully exposed.

You see, lately, I’ve been having some really great adventures. The thing is, I’m just not sure they are the kind of adventures I necessarily want family members to know about. At the same time, I’ve discovered some really remarkable things that I only want to share with my family and no one else.

And as much as I enjoy sharing aspects of my life here at Depot Dad, the fact remains that I find I am unable to share some of my favorite stories, or even share some of my deepest concerns. That is a bummer.

But if, on the other hand, you find yourself in northern California with a free afternoon, then by all means, please stop by for some great tales. I’m better at telling stories in person anyway.
