Mood Swings

Okay, we all have bad days.  I get that.  But come on, do you really have to come into work at least 3 days a week acting completely mad at the world.  It’s very tiring.  I have quit asking what is wrong, because honestly I don’t care anymore.

I get it, I do.  I am going through a divorce and went through some very unpleasant things in my life right after having a baby and going back to work.  But I came in everyday and tried to choose my attitude.  When you walk through the doors of the office, sometimes you just have to let go of the junk on the outside.  Let it be your escape.  Choose your attitude.  It determines so much of your life.

Sorry, but this was one of the those days.  Most days I can ignore her grumpiness and move on…but today it was suffocating.  It makes me feel better to get it out and type it all here.

In the Beginning

I have decided to create a new blog to go with the new chapter in my life.  I can honestly say that I am in a very great place right now albeit a place I never expected to be.  Here I am as a single Mom with an 8 month old precious, baby girl going through a divorce.  Divorce was not in my vocabulary and it was not something that *I* would ever do...but here I sit.  I am not longer bitter.  The anger and hurt are almost gone as well.  In this process, I have learned that I am a very strong woman.  I have always known that I am independent and do not need a man to complete me.  But I have learned that I can handle more than I thought.   I do want anyone to know that is reading this, that Baby K's dad, Daddy T, is an amazing father and loves his daughter tremendously.  He is still a VERY active part of her life.  I did not start this blog to bash him in any way.  This is simply a place for me to document mine and K's happenings.  That's not to say that I will not get mad or frustrated at him from time to time, because I can almost guarantee I will.  And I may at times voice that frustration, but intention will never be to bash him or tear him down.   We get along very well and have found a way to be great parents and have a great relationship apart to support our daughter.  I will always be grateful to him for giving me the most precious baby girl.
