Ok Positive thoughts...hugs and a big old slice of chocolate cake! Being overwhelmed absolutely bites the big one..i get it...know the feeling...youre not alone...and next time the Dr. Phil of HVAC has to come out to fix your ac tell him youre only on the schedule for your ac however if hed like to sit down and analyze your life this afternoon your left cheek will be available around noon for a kiss...or a simple shut the jibs and go scratch always works well...

I can so understand. You are not alone!


I am sending you all my good vibes I can muster up this morning, my friend. You know what? Every one of us has been there! I have- just recently...my DD's whole class went to catalina island for a science trip. The cost was $300! I was too lame to raise the money through fundraising so it left me and her dad with the balance. I had to fork it up- fast. I was so upset. I found out that the school would either give us a scholarship (pay it for us) or we could pay it in increments. I too felt like a charity case and I hated that- BUT I took it....I paid it back in installments. I made the school office a payment schedule so they could see how earnest I was to pay it back. I got over that pride and I KNOW that is not easy. But the end result was that DD had an incredible time at that camp. And no one thinks any less if me-- and you know what, even if they did, that would be their problem. I thank god that they gave me options. So do not feel bad at all!! Take the help, and know that you are doing every single thing you can for your kids!!


Head up, woman! You are so positive and strong and wonderful. I love to read your posts because I sense an inner strength that I strive for myself, and a spirit that is full of life and hope...even in the dark moments. You inspire me :o)


I'm thinking of you....I know this day feels bad. But you are nothing even close to a loser of a failure. We have all been there...and we all get back up. I remember just a few months ago you were down and worried about a job and look how far you have come, already.


Hugs and well wishes. I'd so love to go out and just have a night on the the town with you. For now I will send you virtual Tums, chocolates and one of my adrenalin boosting bud lites, lol!


Hang in there.....We are all with you!

(((((((((Hugs!))))))))))) but I tell ya, I know EXACTLY what you mean!!!! I've been there before. And revisited that "there" many times. I hate it when people tell me how strong I am and crap when I don't feel strong. How tough I am or independent when I feel like is running off and joining some frilly fairy tale where someone can "save me" and eliminate all of the world's worries forever (yeah right)! People think you have it all together when sometimes on the inside you don't. But then others are giving you that "poor single mom" look or attitude when you KNOW that you really ARE doing fine on your own, TYVM!!!!


And uh... Mom-Star owes me a new computer screen because I just dove into mine, going for that yummy cake. :-P
