If there is ever a time when I get the single mom blues it's when I'm sick. Mostly, as you all know, I absolutely LOVE being a single mama - no complaints here. But when you're stressed out about securing your finances, overwhelmed by the millions of things that need to get accomplished, and when you're taking care of your home and your toddler solo, AND you get sick? UGH.
UGH, I say.
The one good thing that came out of today was that I was informed that I've been nominated for a Single Mommy Blog award - which, if I win, could net me some much needed cash. The fact that I was nominated at all means a lot on its own though because the other Single Mommy bloggers are ROCK STARS of the Single Mommy blog scene, seriously. Single Mom Seeking is also being nominated and I started reading Rachel Sarah over at Single Mom Seeking before I even started blogging, when I suddenly found myself pregnant and single and oh so scared. She and Kimberly at Parenting Without a License (which isn't live anymore but may come back in the near future), and Christine over at Solo Mother gave me the courage to take on being a single mom by choice with the certainty that I was in good company. The other women being nominated are also great single mom bloggers who deserve every bit of the recognition.
But, with all that said, will you vote for ME here? :-D Thank you!!! XOXO!

Just wanted to give you some encouragement! I was a single Mom to my Son for 9 years, then I met the Man of my dreams and we have been married 11 years. We have 3 boys and one girl!
Day at a time!
Congrats on your award!!! Yes, being sick with children is not fun...I just spent this last week sick with sick children...but, to do it solo, you are a superstar in my book! Hope you are the picture of health now...Happy SITS day!
