I try not to be a negative Nancy, but things have been really hard lately. Had to get my gallbladder removed, go back to work next week but haven't been able to find good child care, can't afford child care, can't afford bills, my unemployment benefits were suspended and I have to pay back $609 to them since I'm supposedly considered not able to work, it's just been struggle after struggle and it's finally taking its toll. I try so hard to be the positive one and to keep a game face on for my girls but I'm tired of the trials. It's holiday season and I'm dreading it. The little assistance we get from food stamps will end starting next month. I just don't know what to do at this point. I look at my kids and want to cry because I feel like a failure as a mother. I can't buy my oldest clothes or shoes that she needs and her good for nothing sperm donor never pays child support. I can't buy diapers for my little one. I can't even produce enough breastmilk for her and had to start supplementing with formula. Just need something positive to happen. A rainbow in this storm of shit.

School fees
Having an intense debate on Facebook about school fees for public school. I'm in the "stop whining about school fees and stop having kids if you can't afford them" camp and there is the other camp of "free school is a constitutional right! It's bull s*** we have to pay anything at all".
So not in the Christmas spirit this year 😕 I mean I'm happy I have my unborn & my big boy but it's just not the same without my little fatty, it would've been his first Christmas 😢
**VENTING***
I have been a stay at home mom for 9 months and I absolutely HATE IT! I want a job, I need to get out of this house. but we can't afford 800$ daycare each month on top of 1,000$ rent. I'm losing it and my husband is too. I have no idea what to do. we cant live off one paycheck. but I can't work without childcare, but if we can't afford childcare than how am I suppose to work?! I'm so lost.
I've been pregnant twice although this is my first child, and I've learned that I just don't like chocolate while I'm pregnant even though I'm a chocaholic normally lol #sidenote where's my June mommies at? I'm due 6/28 😍 waiting on my June bug 😙
