Are you pooped?

Funny enough, being a single mom has its moments when you wish you were a bachelorette. As I grow older with my seven year old son, it has been very challenging dealing with the traveling, homework, job, studies and other motherly duties that you know of ...that long weary list. 

Strange enough, I admire those moms who drop their children off at school and stand outside for almost an hour after school has begun to have their morning assembly. Which I am to still be part of and to finally find out what is so interesting. 

I just glare at them saying to myself, " I wish I could sleep late, I am so tired." Clearly they were blessed with a husband who takes care of all their motherly needs....hint!! My 365 days became a routine even with the holidays which became my cleaning day. 

So how lucky I am to be pooped out 99% of my social life. No wonder I can't hold one alcoholic beverage without even smelling it and I become intoxicated. But there is the joy of holding that sweet, mischievous and loving kid of yours when they  are asleep, which gives you that comfort and happiness.
