My 10.5yo daughter is independent, strong-willed, and outgoing, but she still calls me mommy and holds my hand in public. I'm going to try and savor every minute of this last year of elementary school.😭😭😭

There was a 5yo girl alone, terrified and sobbing outside on the first day of school. I popped my head into the classroom to let the teacher know. Teacher: I know she's going to have to wait until the bell rings to come inside. The lack of empathy was shocking.

The hardest parts about moving to a new city are learning a new grocery store layout and finding a new hairstylist.

I was looking for a photographer to take pictures of me and my children. After looking at a bunch in my area, I noticed that none of them had examples with single parents and their kids. 🙃

My 7yo, who is clingy and only falls asleep if I'm next to him, spent the last 24 hours with my boyfriend and his 13yo, and he hasn't asked about me once. 😭😂

Trying to fight the urge to pack 4 outfits for an overnight trip.

Going on record to say I like Threads better than Twitter, and no, you can't follow me on there. ✌️

Today, I was reminded of a stupid loser who didn't deserve me. 🤮🤮🤮

8: Mom, it's surprising you're so nice since so many people have been so mean to you in your life.

I know being a SAHM to young kids is really hard, but I'm on my 2nd day as a temporary SAHM to school-aged kids and feel like I'm on vacation.

Things my 12yo cried about last night: -she won't get to live with me forever -her 9yo brother will be a big man someday and will never be a toddler again -turning 50, she doesn't want to be old -everybody is going to die eventually -me becoming a grandma someday

Something doesn't add up. In 2020 Biden had 81 Million votes, Trump had 74 Million votes. In 2024 Harris got 66 Million votes, Trump got 71 million votes. 15 Million Democrats decided to sit this one out? 3 Million MAGA decided to sit this one out? No fucking way.

With all of the career accolades Mike Tyson is receiving tonight, let’s not forget he is a convicted rapist of a teenage beauty queen from Indianapolis. He spent 3 of a 6 year sentence in prison. Can’t imagine how tonight, and the last 30 years have felt for Desiree Washington.

classy stuff at the latest school board meeting in my hometown of Forest Lake, Minnesota (the same town Pete Hegseth is from) these people are more emboldened than ever to be their absolute worst selves

Tony 676 on TikTok just told me economic policies don't have anything to do with prices...

When my abusive ex said karma would get me someday, I don't think he meant me living in a huge house and going on vacations like this, but I think the universe is giving me exactly what I deserve.

My entire life I've known that I had 3 half-siblings that had no desire to know me, and my parents both acted like that's a totally normal experience.

My toxic traits is that I like how snatched I get when stress makes me stop eating. 🙃

Grief of leaving someone with an addiction never goes away. It just sits there under the surface of everyday and every interaction. And sometimes it sneaks up on you as real and raw as it was 8 years ago.
