Raw and Honest Blog of a New Single Mom

I am a single mother of a biracial baby boy just trying to make it on my own. This journey is hard, yet rewarding. Blogging is my therapy, these words are my heart, and people doing better and being inspired by what I have written is my passion and hope.

Site’s Up, Money’s Down!

Hello everyone. I’m baaaack! My site was hacked, was momentarily shut down and I was unable to get in. Because of the malware some of the sites in the hosting system got mixed up and were redirecting people from my site through the 404. I hope no one clicked around on the redirected sites, if [...]

Registration Registration Registration

I feel like a dummy and a bit overwhelmed because I didn’t know there was so much registration work to do for delivery and I’m caught nearly in my final month doing it. Let’s see what all I accomplished today:
I scheduled my Childbirth classes for 4 weeks next month. I’m hoping I don’t run into [...]

Positive

Thanks to every one who supported me in my last blog entry. I really appreciate it and feel much better now. I’m so over Daddy and I’m so over negativity that I kinda want to just delete that entry and forget about every thing .. but I’ll leave it. I know some times it can [...]

Single Deadbeat “Fathers”

I’m judgmental of single fathers. I admit it, but not in a way that you would think.
I’ll start off by saying I’m in no position to be dating right now. I’m just not ready. But I will converse. I’ve come to find that I am quick to shun and feel sour about any guy who [...]

Unwanted Pity

I went to my cousin’s wife’s funeral yesterday at which I saw a lot of people I knew. It was weird how my mom would greet people and proudly say that she’s a grandmother now and the people would look at me with so much pity. One lady said “Bless you .. but you know [...]

Closer

I should be sleeping, but I’m not really sleepy. Actually I can’t sleep well at all lately. I feel like my breathing is different when unconscious so I have a harder time .. it’s hard to explain. I guess I feel like yes I’m unconscious and technically sleeping, but my body never rests.
Just a few [...]

Rain, Snow and Wishes

I’ve been stuck in the apartment about 4 days now due to rainstorms for 2 days and now a snow storm! In spring! I look out my window at 8:30 pm and everything is bright white .. which is very pretty .. but I’m going stir crazy dammit! I want OUT!
I’ve been spending most of [...]

Fighting the Mask of Pregnancy

I had to go to Clinique and MAC and spend some serious cash because my skin is shit. Yes, call me pimple face right along with Cholasma monster aka the Mask of Pregnancy. I swear this little boy is sucking up all my beauty because I have NEVER had skin problems before, but of course [...]

Enlightenment

I have been avoiding people lately. Namely my friend, S, that guy I wrote about the other day, Thumper and a handful of other people.
I feel like it’s mandatory not only for myself and my sanity, but for my little boy as well. I guess I feel like with time there comes a place in [...]
