There are some days where life just seems as if it's fraying at the ends. No patience left for anyone or anything and you just feel like you want to cry. Sometimes I wish it were easy for life to do a complete 180...flip it over and everything's the opposite...or just different. It would be summer, I'd be single, not fighting the motherhood battle, and traveling in another country. I often wonder what single mothers do when they don't have extended family to support them; when they reach that moment of complete frustration, that moment when they want to give up and can't. My cure these days is to shut myself in the bedroom with chocolate or McDonalds and watch T.V. Which sounds really good right about now...
