Meet Wealthy Singles

I'm a business-loving woman and a mother of two. I'm a very independent and natural woman looking for a serious relationship without drama, and an honest man with his feet on the ground, who's sure of what he really wants.

Hey, Y'all. Could I get some hugs and encouragement from those dealing with crazy, unsupportive moms??

A little back story, my mother has never really been supportive of my decisions or my dreams. She has been the original helicopter mom, doing reports for me before I had the chance, typing all of my papers before I could, and generally comandeering all of my decisions. She used to waffle back and forth between heli and neglect. Over my 44 years in her presence, I have learned to just agree to keep the peace and do what I want later; flying under the radar as it were.

Flash forwards to yesterday and she texts me that she has an application for the local diner for me. The boss has finally gotten desperate enough that he will hire me for the hours she said I am available and the app is only red tape. I really don't know who she gaslit into doing this, but it bothers me that she would still try to force my hand.

Mind, I JUST opened the commissions side of my Ko-fi shop on 1Jan. She was not happy about this and has been on me to "get a real job". She has never wanted to see me succeed, but this is a little ridiculous.

My dilemma is thus, do I go tomorrow morning and explain this to the owner, or do I wait until I have the actual application in hand and turn it in blank with the explaination as to why?

Honestly, this is just another one of her attempts to undermine my decisions and make me doubt my ability to do anything on my own. Like she did when I got married and when we bought this house.

I'm sorry to rant and ramble, but I'm just a little disgusted at her, for the moment.

there’s still a thrill in the unexpected twists and turns, but the underlying sense of peace is what truly amazes me. it comes from knowing i'm in the driver's seat, steering my life towards my own ever-evolving dream.

Oh man, today I am feeling like this cooler gloomy weather 𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘭𝘦 𝘮𝘺 𝘮𝘰𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘳𝘢𝘯 𝘰𝘧𝘧 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘪𝘵! 😅

Who else feels like sometimes their energy is directly proportional to the amount of sunshine outside?

But hey, we’re working moms...we’ve got deadlines to meet and 𝘬𝘪𝘥𝘴 𝘸𝘩𝘰 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘣𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘺 𝘢𝘴𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘶𝘴 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘪𝘳 𝘥𝘢𝘥 𝘪𝘴 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘯𝘦𝘹𝘵 𝘵𝘰! 😂

So, how do we keep that motivation train moving along when the weather’s got other plans?

𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗮 𝗳𝗲𝘄 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝗜’𝗺 𝘁𝗿𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗼𝗱𝗮𝘆:

💕 Blasting some cheesy upbeat tunes (𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝟫𝟢’𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘣𝘦𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘪𝘯 𝘮𝘺 𝘦𝘹𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦).

💕 Breaking tasks into bite-sized chunks (𝘐’𝘮 𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘪𝘢𝘭 𝘵𝘰 𝘸𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢 𝘭𝘪𝘴𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘈𝘓𝘓 𝘛𝘏𝘌 𝘛𝘏𝘐𝘕𝘎𝘚, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘤𝘳𝘰𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘪𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘰𝘯𝘦𝘴 𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘴𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭 𝘦𝘴𝘱𝘦𝘤𝘪𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘨𝘰𝘰𝘥 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘮𝘺𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘧 ).

💕 Treating myself to a little pick-me-up (𝘢 𝘱𝘪𝘦𝘤𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘤𝘩𝘰𝘤𝘰𝘭𝘢𝘵𝘦 𝘰𝘳 𝘢 𝘤𝘶𝘱 𝘰𝘧 𝘤𝘰𝘧𝘧𝘦𝘦 𝘶𝘴𝘶𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘥𝘰𝘦𝘴 𝘪𝘵 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘮𝘦!)

What are your go-to tricks when your motivation level is running on empty?

That Deep, Gaping Hole Hey sunshine, How’s it hanging? Hopefully you’ve been having a sunny week like me. Hopefully you’re finding those little sparks of wellness throughout your day, even when the darkness is thick. For me, things continue to be up and down, but I’ve made some surprising efforts that I’m really proud of. I keep telling myself that the most important thing is to be tolerant of…

Beyond Busy: The Art of Time Management for Working Moms

Beyond Busy: The Art Of Time Management For Working Moms Time Management Tips

Jan 15, 2024

If you often find yourself caught in the whirlwind of managing work, family, and everything in between, you're definitely not alone. I get it—the juggling act of being a working mom is no small feat. But fear not, because today, I’m diving into the world of time management. Let's uncover some small, totally doable techniques to help you reclaim control of your schedule and make the most out of every precious moment!

The Art of Time Management

Time management isn't about fitting more into your day; it's about making the most of the time you have. It's a skill that, once mastered, can transform the chaos into a well-orchestrated symphony. Start by acknowledging that you are an amazing working mom managing multiple roles, and you deserve a strategy that works for you.

Creating Daily and Weekly Schedules

Get that planner ready (oh man, this is my favorite part), because we're diving into the nitty-gritty of scheduling. Begin by outlining your priorities for the day and week. Assign specific time blocks for work tasks, family time, self-care, and those unexpected mom duties. Having a visual roadmap can be a huge when it comes to time management, and if it makes it into the planner, you're so much more likely to commit to getting it done!

Setting Priorities and Goals

Prioritization is key. Identify the tasks that truly matter and most importantly, the ones that align with your goals. Whether it's a work deadline, a school event, or your much-needed 'me' time, knowing your priorities helps you allocate time where it matters most!

Delegating Tasks

Meet your sidekick—delegation. If you’re anything like me, it may be a struggle to admit this, but it's okay not to do it all! It’s important to delegate tasks at work and home, whether it's assigning chores to the kids or partnering with a colleague on a project. Remember, you're not relinquishing control; you're smartly distributing the workload, and hopefully acknowledging other’s strengths in the process!

Overcoming Procrastination

Procrastination is the arch-nemesis of productivity. Kick it to the curb by breaking tasks into smaller, more manageable steps. Set super realistic deadlines and reward yourself when you achieve them. Small victories pave the way for significant accomplishments!

Pro-Tip: When you make a to-do list, put everything on there—big or small! There’s something so satisfying about checking things off that list, even if it’s something as small as making your bed, and it will help motivate you to tackle the bigger, less desirable tasks!

Time-Saving Tips for Busy Moms

Let's talk about efficiency hacks. Embrace technology—use apps for grocery shopping, meal planning, and task management. Batch similar tasks together, like responding to emails or tackling household chores. And yes, saying 'no' is a powerful time-saving tool...a good friend of mine recently reminded me that “no” is, in fact, a complete sentence and can be used as such! It really is about preserving your energy for what truly matters!

Remember, time management is a journey, not a destination…and it will help you craft a life that aligns with your values and goals. Embrace the process, be kind to yourself, and celebrate the victories, big or small. You've got this, and I’m here cheering you on every step of the way!
