Make a list or Nah??

Its Sunday night and I’m very rested from having several snow days last week. So I’m recharged and ready to go. My demanding yet rewarding job awaits me along with so many other priorities. I”ve been thinking, “Should I make some type of weekly task list of things I need to get done? Also, maybe a calendar of upcoming events (may daughter is  a high school senior and I know there will be a lot of things coming up that I will have to remember very soon0 . Also, I need some type of financial app that reminds me when due dates on bills are to help me better track my bills. This will help with late fees etc. It may also help me not feel so frustrated or overwhelmed during the week.  Well, guess I will begin on the world wide web and see what I can find or maybe look at the apps on my phone. My question to you all is, “Do you find these kinds of things helpful?” If so , in what ways? Ideas are welcome.

Single Mom or Taxi Driver??

Okay so being single for the last four years has been “different” and I guess its because I was married for 14yrs. I’m in a great place in regards to my Ex husband and the fact that It was NOT meant to be (More on the marriage later).  However, being married had its perks. Driving duties were often shared with my Ex. Are there any single mothers of teenagers who feel like you are a taxi driver instead of a mom??? Seriously, I’m tired of driving these self absorbed teens around (okay that was a bit harsh) but the very definition of teen is Its all about MEEEE!!! Okay, so we are out of school for a snow day. The roads are not horrible, but somewhat icy. After working yesterday, taking my lunch break to take my daughter to her part time Job (once she walks across the street from school), picking up my son from a friend’s house after work, coming home warming up some chicken soup in the crockpot from the previous day, getting a 30min work out in at home, picking  her up from work last night, stopping at the drugstore, then getting home and going to bed. This teenager who slept in…remember “snow day”, has the nerve to wake up and ask, “Can we go look at Prom Dresses today”? We get a day to relax and she wants me out on these icy roads looking for Prom Dresses??? I rolled my eyes as hard as I could and asked if she was “crazy”. I mean reallyyyyy!  Needless to say, I did not go, which is why I’m sitting here writing this long blog. I revealed a lot about my busy life in this one blog, but I will be elaborating on them later. I’m sure there are many other woman or men who may be going through the same issues. Enjoy and post your comments.

My Struggles Matter!!

I Love being a mother. I must tell you that it is the best feeling in the world. To know that there are human beings that YOU brought into this world. Well with some help. Though not much help now. But that’s an entirely different blog…lol. My point is that this title is EVERYTHING to me. With that being said, when every aspect of their life falls on you Only. It gets to be pretty tough. Don’t get me wrong, I wouldn’t change if for nothing in the world. Just sometimes feel that because of my divorce, through no fault of my own, I have been left to play superhero. Does anyone feel me on that…
