It has been 8 months since I last posted here. Wow. I am sorry. Let me catch you up to speed and explain why I have been MIA.
Moved out–officially divorced–reconnected with my high school sweetheart–a surprise pregnancy–moved again–had a baby, and now here I am. Back to typing. Back to trying to sell my books.
For the last 8 months, I have been focused on trying to make a lot of changes not too traumatic for my toddlers. My daughter will be turning five in a few days and my toddler son is 2.5. We have been trying to learn how to have split homes, co-parent, and learning to live with “B” before the baby comes. When I tell you that children are amazing, I mean it. I was so worried how all of MY personal choices would affect them and at every turn, they have surpassed my expectations. Of course, there have been some very hard, very trying times. There have been some behavior regressions. But, I will say, SHOWING UP, and being their constant, has gone so much further. We have adjusted. We are adjusting. What matters is WE are doing it together.
So I am sorry I have been MIA. I have been focused on my family. Now, I am back. Trying to sell my books so I can PROVIDE for my family. “Single” Mom working full time, and I am still struggling. I live paycheck to paycheck. I want to be able to financially breathe.
I never know what I will get on here and type so hopefully something I share resonates with you. Check back periodically for my random Mom thoughts. You can also check out my socials for a more day-to-day look into my mom attempts at providing for my family.
