Dear Valued Users,
It's with a heavy heart that we announce the permanent closure of StepTalk.org on August 31st, 2025.
This decision wasn't an easy one. For over twenty years, StepTalk has been a source of support for stepparents around the world! However, over the years, the costs associated with maintaining and upgrading the site to remain secure, meet current standards and maintain availability have become unsustainable.
We are incredibly grateful for your support, contributions and the community you've helped us build. Your engagement has made StepTalk.org a special place and we cherish the memories and connections made here.
We would especially like to thank Aniki for volunteering to be a moderator and for caring so much.
Thank you for being a part of our journey and we wish you all the best.
Sincerely,
Dawn and The StepTalk Team

We were supposed to be snowed
We were supposed to be snowed in, but barely got a dusting. I'm kind of disappointed!
DH and I are not snowed in
DH and I are not snowed in (yet) but it's supposed to get worse over night. I love it!
Lucky you. Snowed in with
Lucky you. Snowed in with skids. DH had a work thing so I let him go without me. Too much effort & unsafe to drive the kids to a sitter & drive out to the event
We have had
about a foot of snow so far. We have a snowblower attachment on an LS Tractor so no reason why Chef can't make it to his shill CS job tomorrow which is about a 5 minute drive under normal circumstances.
I like my Sundays Chef-free so I can take my time plucking and waxing!
Was minus 34 degrees Celsius
Was minus 34 degrees Celsius with the wind chill here earlier today. Surprised my car started - was hoping it didn't so I wouldn't have to go into work
Stay warm everyone. We are hunkering down, eating Mexican food I prepared and chilling for the night.
We currently have about a 18
We currently have about a 18-20" on the ground and expect 2-5" more. It's 4° outside - feels about -15°. We don't get snowed in. Just wait for the plows to go by!
Gosh
No snow here! But it might reach freezing tonight. Got the fireplace burning. Y'all stay warm.
Sorry - but it was almost 70
Sorry - but it was almost 70 here on the Gulf Coast. But it’s supposed to drop into the high 30s which elicited weather warnings as it might feel like freezing.
I lived in Pittsburgh in 1978 when we got 80 inches of snow and everything closed down. Not my thing.
Almost 80 degrees here today.
Almost 80 degrees here today. Miss the snow, but don't miss my DH screaming about the snow.
We're having a warm winter
We're having a warm winter here. Not as much rain as usual but some crazy winds. I was worried about our roof and trees (crashing into house) a couple weeks ago...no snow this year.
