Raw and Honest Blog of a New Single Mom

Sleeplessness and More Work

Posted on | February 27, 2009 | 3 Comments

I’m so tired. I don’t really get to sleep much anymore because … I don’t know. I find myself being disturbed by someone or something just about every night or morning .. a phone call, a strange noise, a weird dream, a dry throat, an uncomfortable position. Meh. It’s getting so old.

To add on even more to my sleeplessness I took on a new job today. A friend of mine does some work from home computer stuff and alerted me that his company was hiring and recommended that I try to get on. He says he makes an extra $300-500 a week doing this in his free time, so I figured why not? Every little extra dollar I can make for my Jack Jack would be cool. I wanna save as much as I can before he gets here, then save more because I really want a new car next year .. with leather seats being that I now have a child.
So yeah I’m doing the orientation right now, but obviously not really paying attention. Heh.

I don’t really have much to say in this entry. I’m just bored and feeling chatty.

I’m over the hatred I was feeling for Daddy in my last post. It never lasts long anymore because in reality and deep in my heart I want nothing to do with him. I know hes good for absolutely nothing and has nothing to offer me or our baby, but when I dwell on the things he’s done or is doing is when I get pissed and just wanna kick his ass :D I just think he should and could be a little more respectful to our son .. but asking something like that from someone like him is asking too much.
I realized I don’t know him. I don’t really know who he is or what is thought process is while sober. Every time I’ve ever been around him hes been intoxicated by some form of drugs which each cause a different effect. I’m over it.

I gotta go to bed now. I’m so tired.

    Hello I have been reading your blog and find it very interesting. I think you have wrote about a lot of good things. You seem like your going to be a great mother, even if you don’t have the dad in the picture. Some of the things you say I can relate to. I am almost five months pregnant also. It really does suck when you can’t sleep through the whole night. So when you found out what you were having did you see it in three D? You seem like you are really prepared or at least the best you can be. We have to write a blog for english class, and get someone that is writting about the same thing to come and look at it. So if you can would you go and take a look at my blog. Her is the blog address http://studentat18.blogspot.com/ .

    I always hear about jobs like that but I’m always worried it’s some kind of scam. If it’s not let me know! lol

    Being exhausted is definitely part of pregnancy — and motherhood lol — I was so exhausted I could barely drag my butt out of bed. But the time I felt rested enough to it’d been like 12 hours.
    I ended up dropping out of school because I was sleeping through classes! Lame, I know.
    I wish I wouldn’t have but I was really glad to have at least gotten THAT rest while I could lol

    I wonder all the time how women who go to school or work 9-5 jobs do it. I tip my hat to them because I couldn’t! I would be fired or failed years ago.
