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
I've been sick for three
I've been sick for three weeks now, I think I need to finally see the doctor. I think it's a sinus infection and now my fiance has the same thing. Can't wait to pass it on to his son this weekend. Although I read sinus infections aren't contagious necessarily so I think it's just the plague. I had a fever, night chills and sweats, swollen glands under my ears, extreme ear pain, sore throat, couldn't breathe, coughing, sneezing and headaches.
I think it's all this weather changing here in the bay area. One day it's 100 degrees and today is possible thunderstorms.
I have it, too and it's
I have it, too and it's pissing me off!

Lots of rest, vitamins, water, and hot toddies
