There is so much to do and just not enough time to be a single parent doing it. Scouts, Brownies, House Cleaning, Working, Shopping, Wrapping, Decorating. Ugg!
I wish I could snap my fingers and have some things done at home sometimes. We need to do so many things prior to the holidays and there just isn't time.
Tomorrow is Brownies, Saturday is decorating the church, Sunday is church and Breakfast with Santa and Advent by candlelight, Monday is church, Tuesday is Reveal day at church, Wednesday is Advent services, Friday is Brownies.
We still need to put up our tree. We still need to clean the house to put up the tree. We still need to get the Christmas stuff out of storage to do that.
He probably will not be home this weekend. He has done half a day of driving and sitting due to no trailer available. We desperately need the money. Why does it seem that the closer to holidays the more people want money? I cannot wait until we don't have to stretch each penny out of every single paycheck. Not about frivolous spending, but living comfortably again. Being able to spend money on steak instead of hot dogs. Sigh....One day in the future...
Another weekend is fast approaching. Another weekend with all the kids at the house. Another weekend with too much stuff to do to try to relax. Another weekend seemingly alone.
Sighhhh

Hey there Truckdriverwife,
It will get better and easier. Don't rush it, have a postive attitude and believe in that and you will see how believing will make the right changes in your life. I'm here to back you up any old time.
Don't worry, it will all come together. Just keep your head up.
Just reading some of your archives...to get to know you.
BTW - We eat a lot of hotdogs too.
