mama_rama is beat.
I haven't been so entirely exhausted in years. These past few months have brought on a slew of major changes. D is seeing her dad solo for the first time in two years. I'm attempting to balance my newfound independence and single parenthood with a fast-budding and intense relationship. My new job requires longer hours, more skill and concentration than any position I've previously held. My major household appliances are breaking down at a point in time when I can least afford to fix them. My bills from the past month and the one to come have piled up (as has my credit card debt) as I've juggled the break in pay from one job to another. I missed a number of deadlines related to registering D for school and receiving financial aid and am not sure how that's going to affect our chances of actually affording it. My childcare subsidy re-evaluation paperwork is also overdue. The remainder of my jacked up teeth are beginning to drop hints of serious pain ahead. D is going through an unpleasant phase of talking back, criticizing my every action, and periodically just plain hating me. Also, one of my kittens (both of whom have been plagued with periodic illness) appears to have taken a turn for the worse.
