#lifeishell

From the time I started living in housing, receiving what was then “Mother’s Allowance” I remained a stay at home mother to my son and daughter. 

Met another man that turned out to be wonderful. Not a mistake by any means but it just didn’t work out after 3 years of being together.

He was awesome with my kids and he will always hold a special place in my heart... it just didn’t work out

After that relationship fail, i got a job when my children were in JK and Sk. I was a school bus driver... A rewarding job and a stressful one at the same time.

Once both children were in school full time I applied for a government loan to go back to school... Off to college I went, studying Business Information Systems. Unfortunately the only good that came from that was a new love of Accounting..After two years in college and not enough to search for work in the field I then took some online Accounting courses

I spent a few months on an assembly line for a company that soon went bankrupt.

Went back to driving a bus until I found a job in a manufacturing facility. Ten short days on the floor in manufacturing and then a position came up for office help. Some light bookkeeping and general office duties.... got the job

Spent almost 8 years at that job, during which time I had another awful relationship with an older man with issues... I tried and I tried but could not keep putting myself and my teenagers through the torment and hell of being involved with a drunk who only worked when he decided he wanted to...

Along came my first grand baby... yes grand baby at barely 38 years old

This world is deffenetly not made for me...
