I feel for ya. Im a single mom as well with a very active 10 month old. I don't work, but go to school full time and it drains me. I don't think I have stopped being tired since I brought him home as a newborn.yawn

no...it won't stop for a bit anyway...

My husband died when our boys were 11 and 13...very unexpected...nothing was planned..ie: a will, etc. So I had no choice but to work 2 jobs.

The only advice I can give you is to really prioritize things and let go of things/situations you don't need...and be glad you don't live in Michigan...there are no jobs here either.

Good luck dear.flowerforyou flowerforyou
