So, you want to know about me. Better yet, you want to know why I am here. It is simple. I am a newly divorced, single mother who is embarking on a new journey and want to share it with you.
History
I married my ex-husband when I was twenty-one. At the time, we had been shacking up for the past three years. Basically, I, literally, moved from my parents home right into my first home with a man. I never experienced being on my own. Now, twelve years later, I am doing just that.
Since seperating from my ex-husband, my family and friends felt that it was their duty to lead me in the right direction, so to say. I guess they don’t think that I can handle being on my own. I am set out to show them that I, and only I, will have control of my life. I am an adult, dammit, and I will live my life like one.
That doesn’t mean that it won’t be a challenge, but I think that I will be stronger because of this experience. I’ve already made a five-year plan, which I will also share with you, and choices that will shape who I am now as a independent woman and mother of three, also who I will be in the future. I am liberated.
This Blog
Like I’ve previously stated, my I up to my eyebrows with advice being thrown at me from every angle. Some of it is good advice, some not so good. This blog is my way to share all the good, bad, and ugly with the public, but also to put my own spin on it and offer advice to other single mothers out there.
I would also love to hear some your advice out there. Don’t get me wrong, I may be liberated, but I am not stupid. I need help and I appreciate the people who are tying to help me.
