One of my hardest weeks, life-1 mom-0
Hey there, I’m back again. After weeks of stagnant inactive time I’ve been in high gear in the mom life.
This week I had the hard quick lesson as a mom of three, driving for lyft and uber just isn’t going to work. Did I mention that I had two interviews this week?
This morning, I had my second interview at a dealership after realizing that bringing my toddler would get me shut down from being a ride share driver, as much as I disagree with their rules; I can’t abandon a source of income that works whenever I do.
My morning started out with my toddler yanking kool-aid out of the refrigerator and it dropping on the floor at 6:30 this morning. Yay me, right? Fast forward, I’m having issues at the jewelry store trying to get my necklaces cleaned and end up walking out, fairly certain they lost the pendant from my necklace. I had about 1 hour to get my daughter to my in laws for her to be watched so I could go to my interview, zero time to haggle. After redressing a few times and a chat I left for my interview(the second one). The interview did not go well in my opinion, my brain got racked in ways I didn’t expect.
This is just a small little snippet of my life. Something good presents its self, then the negative hides in the dark waiting to strike, right after we hit our high point.
We just had our victory with child support no longer gouging income and tax refunds. Thinking what could possibly go wrong, everything….as usual.
Not sure how we do it or why, but we manage to find a way to power through everything. Trying to show our kids what it means to stick it through, and be strong in a relentless world.
So my message boils down to this, I don’t know if there’s ever going to be a time where we are rewarded without falling on our face shortly afterwards…gods sense of humor i suppose. Sorry if you feel differently and that bothers you, but that’s just my opinion and the way life seems to go for me. Just don’t give up, even the short victories followed by the smack in the face seem to be worth it. It’s a great feeling to have a load removed, even though another one follows.
Maybe my perspective is still wrong, and I have something to learn yet. Quite frankly I think life is just being an a$$ but, the mini victories are great. I live for those moments.
I hope to be back soon with an insightful post of hope and encouragement.
So until then,
enjoy.
