My Ex Rex



My ex Rex is a good egg.

I’m pleased we have found that balance between being ex’s and remaining friends.

Nicole Brodeur, Seattle Times columnist, calls her ex-husband, her “was-band”, a term of endearment.  And wisely points out that you can’t spend too much time with them, but some is okay.

For me, if I can stick to three guidelines, all goes well:

1.     Stay away from the “issues”.
2.     Don’t ask about the new woman.
3.     And laugh laugh laugh.  Make sure we laugh.  Never too much laughter.

Then our friendship remains intact.
