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.

Sleeplessness and More Work

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 [...]

Why Doesn’t He Care?

I’m feeling so frustrated with Daddy right now. My temper is fuming and I type this as anger-tears flood out of my eyes down onto my laptop keyboard. I can’t stop thinking about it.

It sucks! I don’t even feel like [...]

My Baby’s Sex Confirmed :D

ValenDOOM’s Day

Valendoom’s Day was fine .. I survived. I didn’t see too many happy couples rubbing it in my face that they were paired up and living in loving bliss all while I was a single, swollen and pregnant, recently dumped, and furious at my sperm donor mom .. LOL (jk .. kinda. It’s not that [...]
