SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL SINGLE MOM
Too often advice is given that would never be taken.
I have often considered getting a “normal” job, an 8-5 5 days a week job, but I know I could not make the same amount of money! Some days I work 14 hours other days I work 3. And sometimes I’m actually “off”. Yes, it’s hard work. Yes, I’m still tired. But it’s worth it in the end.
Television and media make Entrepreneurs look glamorous. They do not show the dirt, the grime, the sweat and the work it took to get to their end result. Although my self-employed job is not my first choice, it was a devoted choice that has taken a lot of perseverance and hard work. We started with literally $.00 in our pockets… We started from scratch and kept On scratching. We’ve not attained the “end desire” but we are close. Days like today are a challenge to my thoughts. I want to flip off the big-wigs while I work 10 hours doing all the work.
Is it worth it? Oh yes! VERY worth it!! My schedule normally consists of working Tuesday through Thursday for approximately 5-6 hours. Although for the past 2 weeks we have been working Monday- Friday 6-10 hours. This is also a good thing, it means we are growing and going to a new (more $) stage. It will “even out” and I will be back to my “normal” hours. But until
Then, I wanted to rant about the hard work.
Sincerely,
One tired, whiney titty baby
July 2014
Today marks the first day into the rest of my life. I have been in an abusive relationship for over 24 years. 4 years ago I had the courage to call the police and file a restraining order. He changed a lot. But not completely. I made excuses for him over and over and even today. As history repeats itself, today I had to call the police once again so he would leave. This time is different. This time I am not afraid to venture out on my own. Today I officially enter the realm of single-mom-hood. Wish me well.
– Mist
You pushed me to the edge
Of where I was afraid to jump
You pushed me further off the ledge
My fears I was forced to confrontI took the plunge with shaking courage
Not for me but for the kids
For the kids I stayed in marriage
Entangled in insanities bondageNow I spread my wings to fly
No longer held in prison bars
Anxious to soar towards the sky
Soon to be amongst the stars
