My sister-in-law recently divorced, and after staying home alone for about nine months licking her wounds has announced that she is finally ready to start dating again.  She came over last night for supper and we were talking about how it is about time that she started dating again, and the rules of dating.  Since it is so hard to find good babysitters in this area I offered to babysit her kids while she went out on her dates.

I suggested that she consider online dating; it would widen the dating pool and help her find some good matches with much less effort than it would take the “old fashioned” way.  I told her that I know several people that have had good luck with online matchmaking services, and that it’s not a bad social stigma anymore to use a service like that. 

Today I’m sending her an email to further encourage her about that, and to encourage her to visit the http://www.primedatingsites.com website. 

That website compares and reviews many of the more popular online dating services.  I checked out the website myself and found that it talks about Chemistry.com, Match.com, and Eharmony.com along with several other matchmaking sites.  I think that online dating sites are the wave of the future, and I think that they are providing a valuable service in today’s society.

Today I have to run to the grocery store and shop for the weekend at camp, and I have to do the laundry and get packed. It is a lot of work to pack up a family with a baby!

We are planning on having guests for the weekend at camp, so I have to buy extra food and plan out some special menus. The guests this weekend are my hubby’s boss, wife, and daughter, so I’m kind of excited and nervous at the same time. I’m not quite sure how to keep the daughter entertained for the weekend, I hope she brings something of her own, like a book or some video games!

I’m hoping for a good weekend, so we can do some boating.  Maybe we can teach the boss’s daughter how to water ski!
