SINGLE MOM

       Being a single mom is a huge struggle to me. Money always being an issue and wanting to keep

 my boys hidden from what really transpires behind the scenes with the money game. I don't feel

that teenage children need to be exposed to more stress or worries. My money situation is really none

of their business, as long as I'm providing what I need to provide and they fulfill their obligations of

working at some sort of job most teenagers acquire.

      I will say, I knew from the time I thought about becoming a single mom four years ago that it was

going to be a struggle financially.

     Most of my friends whom have been down this road either end up living with their parents or

my friends in NYC have roommates or live with their families for support.

    Having family support or any support  after a divorce is sooo needed. This situation has many

times in the last four years broken me down, crushed, stress, killed who I was as a women, a person,

a human being. I have been to hell and back.

     but I'm learning to survive, on my own, with just my boys and me.

          I call these days "the dark days of my life"

And hopefully one day, sooner than later I can look back and say with much pride!!!

       I MADE IT!!!!
