Any horse-moms on here...? I feel so broken right now. I gave up riding to be a mom and now I'm fighting to be the mom I want to be over the horseback rider I've always dreamed of... Any other moms putting aspirations on hold while living paycheck to paycheck? It's killing me. Almost 11 weeks into my second pregnancy... How do you live and work without stressing all of the little things? Is there some magical job out there for moms with no college degree to keep them from scraping the floor of the bank account every week?
My boyfriend Alan has stuck with me for two years. He helps out a lot, but I work mornings, come home, swap the car, talk for maybe 20 minutes before he's off to work and home at 10. Recently a lot of my friends don't really seem all that interested in connecting and mom groups have turned hostile, passively with mothers and myself and violent between their kids and mine. My son is 2.5, not speaking but jargons, we can't afford daycare so he's basically unsocialized with anyone but me. I'm in tears just trying to get this all out
